Saqer Al-Jazirah Royal Air Force Museum, Aviation history museum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Saqer Al-Jazirah Royal Air Force Museum is an aviation museum in Riyadh displaying aircraft, engines, weapons, and uniforms from different periods of flight development. The exhibition halls showcase the technical evolution and equipment used by the Saudi air force over time.
The museum opened in 1999 and documents Saudi aviation development beginning from the 1920s. The collection shows how the nation built and modernized its aeronautical capabilities over time.
The museum's name honors Saqer al-Jazira, an early Saudi pilot whose legacy shaped the nation's aviation history. Visitors can sense how flight became woven into the country's modern story.
The museum is located on the East Ring Road and is easily accessible by car. Plan to spend several hours to fully explore the various exhibition halls and displays throughout the site.
A former Saudia Airlines passenger aircraft marks the main entrance and serves as a landmark visible from the ring road. This repurposed plane has become the museum's most recognizable feature from a distance.
