太阳天文台是安装了特别的望远镜，用来监测太阳的天文台。为此，它们通常有一架或多架的太阳望远镜。

爱因斯坦塔是位于德国波茨坦爱因斯坦科学公园内的太阳天文台。

太阳天文台研究与太阳有关的现象。太阳，最靠近地球的一颗恒星，让我们一个独特的机会，以高分辨率来研究恒星物理。直到1990年代It was, until the 1990s,，它是唯一一颗我们能获得表面影像的恒星。太阳天文学家感兴趣的一般主题是11年的周期（也就是太阳周期）、太阳黑子、磁场活动（参见太阳动力学）、太阳闪焰、日冕物质抛射、较差自转和电浆物理学。

A solar observatory is an observatory that specializes in monitoring the Sun. As such, they usually have one or more solar telescopes.

The Einstein Tower was a solar observatory in the Albert Einstein Science Park in Potsdam, Germany.

Solar observatories study phenomena associated with the Sun. The Sun, being the closest star to earth, allows a unique chance to study stellar physics with high-resolution. It was, until the 1990s, the only star whose surface had been resolved. General topics that interest a solar astronomer are its 11-year periodicity (i.e., the Solar Cycle), sunspots, magnetic field activity (see solar dynamo), solar flares, coronal mass ejections, differential rotation, and plasma physics.
