The Lausitz airfield Finsterwalde / Schacksdorf is a special airfield for general aviation and a former military airfield of the Luftwaffe of the Wehrmacht and the Soviet air force southeast of Finsterwalde in Brandenburg. The airfield is permitted for all helicopters, motor gliders, gliders, balloons and airships, regional transport and feeder aircraft up to a maximum take-off weight of 14,000 kg. Only aircraft up to 2,000 kg are allowed to land on the grass runway. In May 1993, the Soviet troops handed the area over to the German authorities. In addition to the hangars and bunkers, the airfield was equipped with a swimming pool, train station, casino and fire station; they were demolished. The hangars and the tower remained in the course of the renovation from 1999 to 2003.

The concrete runway was shortened from 2,400 to 1,200 meters during the renovation of the airfield.
