Not a museum. The entire archive was moved to the German Museum of Technology in Berlin in 2017. The photos in this highlight show everything that remains of Butzweilerhof Airport: the historic reception building, a Fokker F-27, a fire engine. Oh, Cologne 😭

Insider tip: In the passage behind Abacco's Steakhouse ("emergency exit"), two information boards with numerous photos, documents, and explanations hang on the walls. These are excerpts from "80 Years of Civil Aviation in Cologne," published by Bachem Verlag in 2006, which is also available in bookstores.

At least the archive website, which is rich in material, is still accessible:
luftfahrtarchiv-koeln.de/Luftfahrtmuseum_Butzweilerhof.htm

This aircraft is located in the parking lot of the V8 Hotel and adjacent to the Motorworld Michael Schumacher.

Where else can you find an airplane standing around... And one so old at that.
