Aviation Museum

Aviation Museum, Aviation museum in Borovaja village near Minsk, Belarus.

The Aviation Museum is an open-air collection of aircraft of the Central Aero Club DOSAAF named after S. Gritsevets, displayed near Minsk. Its exhibits include the Li-2, a 1953 model that previously stood in the Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War, alongside An-2, Il-14P, MiG-15UTI, MiG-17, MiG-19S, MiG-21SMT, MiG-23UB, MiG-25BM, MiG-27K, Su-7BMK, Su-17M, Su-25, Su-27P, Yak-18, Yak-25M, Yak-28PP and L-29 Delfin aircraft, Mi-1M, Mi-2, Mi-8T and Mi-24P helicopters, and an SZD 41 Jantar Standard glider.

The project started in 1999 with just four displayed aircraft in the village and gradually expanded. In 2009, the Central Flying Club formally established it as a museum, and it has grown into a larger collection since then.

The site serves today as a venue for regional and international competitions in helicopter operations, parachuting events, and aircraft model demonstrations. These activities draw enthusiasts and professionals who want to experience aviation history and technology firsthand.

The museum opened on 4 July 2009 and was officially closed on 20 October 2023, with reopening planned for 2024 after the exhibits were moved to a new site. Check locally before travelling, since the collection was relocated from Barovaya to Lipki in 2020 and the display area may change again.

The Li-2 on display is a 1953 model that previously stood at the Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War; sources note that Stalin flew an aircraft of this type to the Tehran Conference in 1943. The collection also holds an experimental OW-1 plane and a Jantar Standard glider.
