The Observatory has three solar telescopes, two of which are currently used for astronomical studies and because of their specific structure are also known as solar towers.

The 18-meter telescope tower was completed in 1908, and the 46-meter telescope tower in 1912. The snow solar telescope, built in 1904 is used for educational demonstrations. The telescopes are applied in the study of helioseismology and the investigating of other changes in the solar nature.
