Munich-Riem Airport, International airport in Bavaria, Germany.

The former Munich-Riem Airport extended across eastern Munich with a central terminal building, control tower, and extensive runway system for commercial flights.

The airport operated from October 1939 until May 1992, serving as a military airfield during World War II before transitioning to civilian aviation.

The Wappenhalle terminal building remains preserved as a protected monument, representing the architectural style of 1930s German aviation infrastructure.

The former airport grounds now contain the Munich Trade Fair center, connected to the city through the U2 subway line stations Messestadt West and East.

Munich-Riem Airport hosted the final concert of Nirvana in March 1994, after its closure as an operational airport in 1992.
