Observatory created on the initiative and thanks to the means of Raphaël Bischoffsheim, son of a banker passionate about astronomy. He acquires the site at the summit of Mont-Gros in 1879 and asks the architect Charles Garnier to design the architectural project whose work begins in 1881\. The shelter of the large equatorial telescope is made with the help of the engineer Gustave Eiffel, builder of a cylindrical-spherical dome in metal framework which, to allow rotation, rests in a circular tank filled with water. Ensemble inaugurated in 1887\. In 1931, the observatory receives from the firm Carl Zeiss of Jena, as war damages, two new equatorial instruments, a comet researcher and a double astrograph. To house them, the Schaumasse dome and the astrograph building and dome were built by the Nice architect Honoré Aubert. Scientific importance of the equipment.
