Sormano Astronomiske Observatorium er et astronomisk observatorium nord for Milano, Italien. Beliggende nær den schweiziske grænse i 1000 meters højde i bjerglandsbyen Sormano i for-Alperne, blev observatoriet privat finansieret af Gruppo Astrofili Brianza og bygget i 1986.
Observatoriet er kendt for sine astrometriske observationer af mindre planeter og kometer i solsystemet. Efter sit første lys i januar 1989 har flere amatørastronomer som Marco Cavagna, Valter Giuliani, Piero Sicoli, Pierangelo Ghezzi, Francesco Manca, Paolo Chiavenna, Graziano Ventre og Augusto Testa gjort deres opdagelser af mindre planeter ved observatoriet ved hjælp af dets 50-centimeter "Cavagna Telescope", en Ritchey–Chrétien astrograph. Astronomer ved Sormano har udviklet deres egen specialsoftware til at foretage opfølgende observationer af nærjordsobjekter som 4179 Toutatis og 99942 Apophis.
