Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre
Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre, Military aviation museum in Montrose, Scotland
The Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre displays aviation artifacts, aircraft replicas, and military equipment across multiple exhibition halls and outdoor spaces.
Established in 1913 as Britain's first operational military airfield, the station played crucial roles during both World Wars before closing permanently in 1952.
The John Betty Library contains Scotland's largest private collection of aviation literature, supporting researchers exploring military and aviation histories.
The museum opens Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with adult tickets priced at £8.80 and free entry for children under 16.
Three original 1913 hangars near the Heritage Centre represent some of the earliest surviving military aviation structures in the world.
