Letecké muzeum Olomouc, Aviation museum in Koněšín, Czech Republic
Letecké muzeum Olomouc is an aviation museum located near the Náměšť nad Oslavou military airport on the grounds of a former radar installation. The outdoor display area features a range of military aircraft from different manufacturers and eras, arranged across open terrain.
The museum was established in 2009 and later moved to a former radar base adjacent to a military airfield. The collection grew through partnerships with military institutions and the contributions of aviation enthusiasts who gathered these aircraft over time.
The collection reflects the path of aviation development in Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic over several decades. Walking through the outdoor displays shows how flying became part of the region's technical identity.
The outdoor site is accessible in all weather conditions and requires comfortable footwear for walking across the open grounds. Summer visits offer extended daylight and better visibility of the aircraft, while winter visits tend to be quieter with fewer crowds.
One of the rarest aircraft in the collection is a MiG-15UTI, a training variant from the early Cold War period that served as a test platform for ejection seat technology. Few examples of this model remain preserved anywhere in the world.
