Abstract: We present an analysis of light variations in UBV(RI)C of the anomalous object in the center of planetary nebula Sh 2-71. We refined the linear ephemeris of the light maxima to JDmax = 2449862.0 + 68.101 (E − 96), but also identified long-term, obviously non-periodic variations. The latter manifest themselves in large O-C shifts, a variable profile of light curves (hereafter LC) and changes in the mean brightness of the object. Our spectroscopic observations suggested the presence of a superdense nebula in the center of Sh 2-71.
