During a program for the observation of central stars of old planetary nebulae 29 stars are classified until now. Most of them (22) are belonging to the hydrogen-rich sequence and resemble either high-gravity sdO stars or white dwarfs (14 DAOs, 3 DAs). 3 are hydrogen-deficient PG 1159 stars, and also 3 are hybrid type stars Further 3 CPN are close binaries, whose evolution has been certainly influenced by this circumstance. A complete list of so far observed objects is given in Napiwotzki (1992).
