Usine aéronautique Latécoère de Montaudran, Aircraft factory in Montaudran district, Toulouse, France.
The Latécoère factory complex features three halls spanning 130 meters in length, with the central section supported by brick pillars and metal framework.
Pierre-Georges Latécoère established the factory in 1917, transforming it from railroad equipment manufacturing to aircraft production during World War I.
The site marked the beginning of French commercial aviation with the first civilian flight departing to Barcelona on December 25, 1918.
The former industrial site now houses the Toulouse Aerospace campus, combining educational facilities with cultural attractions focused on aviation history.
The metal framework of the central hall and concrete reinforced side sections demonstrate early 20th-century industrial architecture techniques.
