1815 Beethoven, provisional designation 1932 CE1, is a carbonaceous background asteroid from the outer regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 30 kilometers (19 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 27 January 1932, by German astronomer Karl Reinmuth at the Heidelberg Observatory.[1] The uncommon F-type asteroid seems to have a long rotation period of 54 hours (tentative).[13] It was named after Ludwig van Beethoven.[1]
