Münster/Osnabrück Airport, Commercial airport in Greven, Germany
Münster/Osnabrück Airport is a commercial airport in Greven with two separate terminal buildings for arriving and departing passengers. The site includes runways and extensive parking areas for vehicles and aircraft.
The airfield was built by the British Army in 1966, transforming a wooded and swampy area into a working aviation facility. Since then it has grown into a regional transport hub.
The airport links two federal states and serves as a main entry point for people from the Münster and Osnabrück regions and surrounding areas. Daily travelers pass through to reach destinations across Europe and beyond.
The airport is accessible via exit 75 of the A1 motorway and is about 30 minutes driving time from Münster city center. Visitors should allow time for parking and arrive early for their flights.
The airport site was originally dense woodland and swamp before being completely reshaped to enable air traffic. This transformation shows how infrastructure can develop even in challenging locations.
