Telescoop.nl aims to make the wonders of the universe more accessible to everyone. We combine practical experience, reliable delivery, and in-depth knowledge, and collaborate with organizations that want to enhance science, education, or experiential learning with a focus on the universe\u2014from schools and universities to amusement parks and public institutions.<\/p>\n

View telescopes in Sneek<\/strong>
\nWould you rather see a telescope in person first? You can do that at our store in Sneek (Friesland), where we have a selection of telescopes and mounts. Please note: not all models from our range are available there. If you would like to see a specific model or receive personal advice on your choice, please always make an appointment first via info@telescoop.nl<\/a>, because without an appointment, there isn't always someone present who can advise you on the telescopes. We sell mainly online: for honest and fast advice, you can always email, WhatsApp, or call us.<\/p>\n

Societal cooperation with VONK!<\/strong>
\nAt VONK! in Sneek, people in a learning-work program handle the assembly and shipping of some of our orders. This means every telescope you receive also represents an opportunity for employment and development.<\/p>\n

Sponsor of Astroforum.nl<\/strong>
\nTelescoop.nl is a proud sponsor of Astroforum.nl<\/a>, the largest Dutch-language community for amateur astronomy. We support the sharing of knowledge and experience within the hobby.<\/p>\n

Collaboration with SSVI<\/strong>
\nJean-Pierre Grootaerd is a well-known name in amateur astronomy and brings astronomy to the classroom with SSVI from Ghent. View their Educational offerings for schools<\/a> or SSVI in a box<\/a>, which allows students to build a telescope themselves.<\/p>\n

The Weerribben Observatory<\/strong>
\nIn the middle of the nature reserve between Ossenzijl and Kalenberg, there is the Sterrenwacht de Weerribben, with one of the largest public-accessible telescopes in the Netherlands: a 60 cm mirror. Wim Liesker organizes public evenings for adults and children there, workshops and boat trips to the observatory, and shows live images on the large screen using a smart telescope. View the program weerribben.eu\/sterrenwacht<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bringing people closer to the stars together<\/strong>
\nOur passion extends beyond the showroom. In the classroom, at a holiday park, or during a public event: by combining knowledge, experience, and technology, we make space accessible for young and old. Do you want your organization to be part of this? Then check out the initiative at http:\/\/ontdekhetuniversum.nl\/<\/a>!<\/p>\n
