Vartiovuori Observatory is a former observatory in Turku. The observatory, designed by Carl Ludvig Engel, was originally built for the Royal Academy of Turku. The neoclassical building was completed in 1819. The observatory is situated atop the Vartiovuori hill, and it is clearly visible from different sides of the city centre.
The observatory became defunct already in 1836. Today the building is owned by the Åbo Akademi University Foundation and houses the foundation's offices.
