Glashütte Observatory is an observatory located in Glashütte, Saxony, Germany. Hugo Müller led the way and supplied a plot of land in Dittersdorfer Weg for the construction of an observatory, which began construction when the foundation stone was set on 27 August 1906. When the observatory opened four years later in 1910, on 26 June, it cemented Glashütte as the hub of Germany’s watchmaking industry.
