National Aerospace Museum

The National Aerospace Museum is an aerospace facility in Cerrillos that displays aircraft and aviation materials in a spacious exhibition hall. The collection spans different periods of aviation development and is laid out for easy viewing.

The museum was established in 1944 and moved to its current Los Cerrillos Airport location in 1992. This relocation allowed the growing collection to be displayed in a larger and more suitable setting.

The museum reflects Chile's role in aviation development and how the aerospace industry became part of national pride. Visitors encounter the story of how flying technology transformed the country's relationship with its vast geography.

The museum sits on the Los Cerrillos Airport grounds and is straightforward to reach on foot. The exhibition area has wide pathways and a flat layout, making it easy to view all sections.

The museum displays aircraft that were manufactured in Chile itself, showing that the country developed its own aerospace production capacity. These machines tell the story of Chileans who engaged in aviation manufacturing.
