Museo Del Aire

Based at Cuatro Vientos since 1975, the objective of the museum is to acquire, conserve and display the aircraft, equipment and associated paraphernalia that constitute the historical heritage of the Spanish Air Force. With 7 hangars and an exterior exhibition covering nearly 70,000m², the museum houses aircraft, uniforms, medals and decorations, vehicles, mock-ups and other aviation-related displays. Following the end of the Spanish Civil War and the creation of the Air Force, the idea was conceived to create a museum that would reflect the evolution and history of Spanish aeronautics.
