Under the cosmic conductor: The night sky sets the pace for life

Welcome to the star square Ramsau am Dachstein - where the night sky not only invites you to marvel, but also to reflect. Because darkness is much more than the absence of light: it is an ancient clock for life on our planet. Whether animals, plants or humans - our biorhythm has followed the interplay of day and night for millions of years.

Here you can find out how bats, fireflies and nocturnal birds depend on darkness, how plants breathe and flower at night, and why humans produce melatonin at night - the “sleep hormone” that not only ensures a good night's sleep but also a strong immune system.

At a time when artificial light is replacing the nights in many places, this starry place impressively demonstrates how important natural darkness is for the ecological balance. The accompanying panels combine scientific facts with exciting insights into nature, health and cultural history - from the influence of the moon to the secret rhythms of the plant world.

Here, the night once again becomes a space for experience - as a silent conductor that has accompanied our lives since the beginning. Let yourself be touched by the darkness, discover new perspectives on the interplay between heaven and earth - and feel how beneficial real night can be.

Here you can see exactly where the pitch is located.
