    Tips

    May 6, 2025

    The museum was renovated for years and has now reopened, but unfortunately, more than half of the exhibition is closed again. In my opinion, it's not worth visiting at this time. May 2025.

      From the Apollo 11 command module to the 1903 Wright Flyer, the Space Shuttle Discovery and a studio model of the original Starship Enterprise, you'll find all kinds of treasures related to air and space here.
