The Tycho Brahe Planetarium lies in Copenhagen, Denmark, at the southern end of Skt. Jørgens Sø.

The planetarium is build where the theater Saltlageret was previously located. The foundation stone was placed on February 22 1988, and the planetarium opened on November 1 1989. The financial basis for building the planetarium was a 5,000,000DKK donation by Bodil and Helge Petersen to the Urania foundation, which administrated the construction of the planetarium.

The planetarium has an IMAX theater, as well as a star projector which can show 4,000 stars, the sun, and the planets.
