Morgan County Observatory

Morgan County Observatory is located on the grounds of Greenwood Elementary School in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. The observatory is currently only open to private events. The telescope onsite is a 16-inch Cassegrain-Newtonian that was built for the U.S. Naval Academy in 1967. After it was decommissioned in 1993, it was moved to the school where it’s now housed.
