Résumé (en anglais)

From October 14 to 17, 2008 the international ICOMOS symposium about “Cultural Heritage of Astronomical Observatories (around 1900) – From Classical Astronomy to Modern Astrophysic” took place as the first event in the context of the International Year of Astronomy (IYA) 2009 in Hamburg. The objective of the ICOMOS symposium was to discuss the relevance of modern observatories for the cultural heritage of mankind. On the UNESCO World Heritage List buildings of science are currently underrepresented. The discussion about “Astronomy and World Heritage” had already started in 2004 in order to establish a link between science and culture and to raise awareness of the cultural importance of astronomical sites. In October 2008 a Memorandum of Understanding between UNESCO and the International Astronomical Union (IAU) was signed. Guests from 20 countries discussed in Hamburg the cultural heritage of observatories and presented their papers which described in detail the history of the buildings, the architectural features, the valuable instruments and the archive material of the observatories as well as the scientific achievements, inventions and discoveries. It turned out that some more research has to be done in order to get an analysis of the architectural relevance of the observatories and their urbanistic disposition, as well as an evaluation of the inherent artistic and aesthetic values.
