Dessau airfield, Commercial airfield and heritage site in Dessau-Roßlau, Germany.
The Dessau airfield spans across a large area northwest of the town, featuring a 1000-meter runway between the districts of Kleinkühnau, Alten, and Siedlung.
The airfield, established in the 1920s, served as a production site for Junkers aircraft until 1947, when Soviet authorities dismantled the manufacturing facilities.
The facility represents an intersection of German aviation development, transforming from a military installation to a civilian airfield following German reunification.
The airfield maintains regular operations for charter flights and connects to local transportation through the Dessau-Roßlau public transit system.
Former Soviet military aircraft, including MiG-15 jets, Lavochkin La-9, and Ilyushin Il-10 models, operated from this location during the Cold War period.
