The Višnjan observatory is one of the twelve most productive observatories of all time in terms of the number of discovered asteroids.

Višnjan Observatory is an astronomical observatory located in the small town of Višnjan in Croatia. It was founded in 1978 by amateur astronomer Korado Korlević, who gathered a group of astronomy enthusiasts. Today, the Višnjan observatory has its own school of astronomy and regularly organizes various programs for the public.

Since its establishment, the Višnjan Observatory has been involved in many significant astronomical discoveries. In cooperation with other world observatories, they discovered more than 1,600 asteroids, and also contributed to the discovery of several comets.

However, perhaps the most important discovery made by the Višnjan Observatory was the discovery of a new planetary system, called the "Višnjan System". This planetary system consists of three planets and was discovered by a team of astronomers from the Višnjan Observatory using a telescope and an observatory.

In addition, the Višnjan Observatory is known for its real-time sky observation program, which can be followed online. This program allows people all over the world to see what is happening in the sky above Croatia, including interesting events such as solar and lunar eclipses.

All in all, the Višnjan Observatory is an important astronomical observatory that has made several significant discoveries and continues to contribute to astronomy through its programs and research.
