Luftfahrttechnisches Museum Rechlin

Luftfahrttechnisches Museum Rechlin is a volunteer nonprofit museum in the historic buildings of the Luftwaffe’s Rechlin test station, where aviation development from 1916 through 1945 shaped aircraft technology. Five exhibitions cover German Luftwaffe testing, postwar Soviet aviation, the Rechlin shipyard, NVA and Bundeswehr communications use, and local history, connecting aircraft and technical artefacts with the site’s changing military-industrial roles. The museum preserves and restores exhibits and archive material and offers group tours by arrangement; public access and current opening or accessibility arrangements follow operator guidance. Visitor address: Am Claassee 1, 17248 Rechlin, Germany.
