The Planetarium Room is what it's all "about" at the Eise Eisinga Planetarium. The model of the sun with the 6 planets revolving around it is still working. This makes it the oldest working planetarium in the world. During your visit, you will receive an explanation in the Planetarium room. This explanation takes about 15 minutes. You can explore the rest of the museum, including the cogs, on your own.
