Technikmuseum Dessau

Technikmuseum Dessau, Aviation technical museum in Dessau, Germany

Technikmuseum Dessau occupies the grounds of the former Junkers Motorenbau und Flugzeugwerk in the Klein-Kühnau district of Dessau-Roßlau. A large light-grey hall with tall multi-paned windows and a grey metal roof with four dormer vents holds the indoor collection; outside stand the remains of a 1934 wind tunnel, a 1935 instrument calibration platform, an Il-14 from Dresden and Dessau-built refrigerator wagons. In front of the hall, a white, blue and grey Ju 52/3m with the registration D-A-SAF and "Deutsche Lufthansa" lettering is parked beside a white stair vehicle marked "Technik-Museum" and "Hugo Junkers".

The museum opened in 2001 on the grounds of the former Junkers Motorenbau und Flugzeugwerk in the Klein-Kühnau district. It began as a gathering of aircraft from an aviation meeting and later widened its scope. Its collection was taken over from the aviation section of the Dessau police sports club PSV 90 e.V., dissolved in 2000.

The museum is run by the Förderverein Technikmuseum "Hugo Junkers" e. V., a supporters' association, on the grounds of the former Junkers Motorenbau und Flugzeugwerk in the Klein-Kühnau district. Its aircraft and helicopters came from the aviation section of the Dessau police sports club PSV 90 e. V., which was dissolved in 2000. The collection began as a gathering of aircraft shown at an aviation meeting and was gradually widened.

The museum occupies the grounds of the former Junkers Motorenbau und Flugzeugwerk in the Klein-Kühnau district of Dessau-Roßlau. Exhibits are split between the exhibition hall and the outdoor area, where the wind tunnel remains, the 1935 calibration platform, the Il-14 and the Dessau refrigerator wagons stand. Most outdoor aircraft, apart from the Il-14, await restoration, so allow time for both sections.

The Ju 52/3m on display is largely in its original state: it made an emergency landing on the ice of Hartvikvatnet near Narvik during World War II, sank, and was raised in 1986. In 1995 Dessau traded a MiG-21PFM (NVA 891 / Bw 22+37) to Norway to bring it back; the MiG is now held by the Norwegian Armed Forces Museum in Oslo.
