Abstract.
The 57 cm CCD telescope of the Klet Observatory has been used for optical follow-up observations of selected GRBs. The limiting magnitude as deep as mag 22 has been obtained. The results obtained will be presented and discussed. We will also address the capabilities of the used system for the GRB analyses as well as the further improvements including the newly developed 1.06 m aperture CCD telescope
