Flying Gyrocopter & Old Aircraft Museum: a former collection

The Flying Gyrocopter & Old Aircraft Museum in Arnemuiden is no longer a place you can visit. The private aviation collection has been wound up and auctioned; older listings of weekend opening no longer apply.

Plan your visit ↗

What the collection comprised

The former museum centred on gyrocopters and older aircraft, among other things. Engines and vehicles were also part of the collection. That explains why the name may still appear in aviation descriptions and museum overviews.

An old address is not a destination

The collection was based at Midden-Zeeland airfield on the Calandweg. That historic address gives no access to an existing museum. A visit to the airfield is a different activity and must not be taken as access to the former collection.

Planning an aviation outing

For a museum visit, look for a venue with a current public calendar. Check name, address and visiting options together; an old photo or opening time does not tell you where an auctioned aircraft is now, or whether it remains publicly accessible anywhere.

Before you go

Permanently closed as a museum venue. Do not travel to the former address for a museum visit.
