While you are here take the time to visit the museum’s Observatory building which details the life and work of renowned physician/scientist Wilhelm Reich.  Visitors to the Observatory can enjoy a fascinating biographical video about Reich, then tour the building, view Reich’s scientific inventions and equipment, his study, library, sculptures, vivid paintings, and his personal memorabilia. Children can explore a hands-on Discovery Room. And the Observatory roof provides spectacular vistas of the region’s open skies, lakes, and surrounding countryside. Reich’s tomb, with its dramatic bronze portrait bust, is in a forest clearing nearby. The Observatory is open in July and August, Wed. - Sun. 1-5 p.m.  September: Sundays only 1-5 p.m. Special tours year-round by appointment.FMI: (207-864-3443) e-mail: wreich@rangeley.org.
