Zeppelin Museum & Aviation and Aerospace Museum, Friedrichshafen

Zeppelin Museum The partial 1:1 model of the airship LZ 129 ‘Hindenburg’ – reproduced true to the original and authentically furnished – forms the centrepiece of the Zeppelin airship displays. Inside these cabins visitors experience the special atmosphere inside a 1930s airship and get to know the technical aspects of this aircraft. The exhibition also includes an original engine nacelle of the LZ 127 ‘Graf Zeppelin’ airship and an impressive Maybach ‘Zeppelin’ saloon car. A great number of models not only from German, but also French, Italian, British and American manufacturers illustrate the fact that airship construction was an international concern. In other sections of this exhibition visitors are informed about the development of airship technology, about airship line services and related infrastructures as well as the areas of airship operation.

Aviation & Aerospace Museum Anyone can be a pioneer – that’s certainly one message visitors to the Dornier Museum Friedrichshafen will take home with them.
