The Torun VLBI Station is situated in Piwnice near the site of the Torun Radio Astronomical Observatory on the Nicolaus Copernicus University Land Estate, about 10 km north of Torun. The VLBI station development started in 1976, when the rubidium frequency standard was ordered and the ground was broken for the foundation of the 15-m equatorially mounted dish. The construction of the Mark II-C VLBI system began in 1977, and the completed VLBI station was first tested in 1980. The first fringes were obtained on May 31, 1981, with the Effelsberg 100-m dish. This experiment started our work with the European VLBI Network (EVN), and later in 1984 with the Global VLBI Network. We now have five radiometers and have received funding for the construction of a new VLBI station, with a 32-m dish, which is now in the final design stage.
