3C 196.1 is a low-excitation radio galaxy[1][2] located in the constellation of Hydra. It has a redshift of 0.198[3] and was first discovered as an astronomical radio source in 1965.[4] This object resides as the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) of a cool core galaxy cluster CIZA J0815.4-0308 located at the same redshift, with its source being best described as a HyMOR (Hybrid Morphology Radio Source).[5][6]
