The observatory was built in 1974 as a branch of the Paris Observatory. In 1990 amateur astronomers were granted use of its 62 cm Cassegrain telescope.

The main-belt asteroid 48159 Saint-Véran was discovered at and named for the observatory and its hosting village.[3] Presumably, it was the first discovery made at the observatory on 16 April 2001, synchronous with 264476 Aepic.
