Abstract

Baade (1963) pointed out three regions of low obscuration in the general vicinity of the center of the Galaxy. One of these “windows”, the closest to the center, encompasses the globular cluster NGC 6522, and in it one can study a stellar population which presumedly is characteristic of the nuclear bulge of the Milky Way.
