With its numerous original aircraft, the Historic Aviation exhibition is an eye-catcher in its own right. On the second floor and in a gallery on the mezzanine floor above, the focus is on the history of flying during the first half of the 20th century, when aviation experienced a rapid technological rise. How this was directly influenced by the two world wars is a central point of the presentation. The exhibition is divided into five overarching sections: The period of the Weimar Republic, the years from 1933 to the end of the Second World War and an overview of aircraft engines can be found in the main room on the second floor. The gallery is dedicated to model flying and gliding. Between the impressive exhibits, from Junkers F13 to Messerschmitt Me 262, you can also trace the exciting history of aviation on both levels with numerous media stations and demonstrations such as model flying and gliding simulators.
