Norwegian Aviation Centre

- 10 000 m2 of Norwegian aviation history! From the main road into Bodø, the Norwegian Aviation Museum resembles a gigantic propeller. This modern building has a unique form, in grey and black, and with huge surfaces of shiny glass.

But the real excitement begins once you're inside. From the entrance, which comprises the light and pleasant Café Gidsken, you move into the Rotunda, a tall and spacious exhibition about mankind's ancient dream of flying.

On both sides of the Rotunda, there are monumental exhibition halls - one for civil aviation and one for military aviation history. Together, they form a virtually inexhaustible source of insight and information, experience and wonder. Here you can see the Junkers Ju-52, the U-2 spy plane, Spitfire, Mosquito, Vampire and Starfighter.

From the museum's control tower, we see a spacious and wild landscape, full of contrasts and with a climate that has provided many challenges for aviation.

You are quite welcome to try the museum's flight simulators. It will feel real enough to make you perspire! Or perhaps a small aperitiff in the control tower ?

Dinner for up to 150 persons with varying menus can be served in the Rotunda.
