Dornier Museum

„Where great pioneers meet!“ According to this motto, the new Dornier Museum takes the visitors on a journey to the world of aerospace. About 400 exhibits give a survey of 100 years of pioneering spirit at Dornier. A dozen original Dornier airplanes have found an authentic environment in a newly built hangar, which is connected to the Friedrichshafen Airport. Smaller exhibits are integrated in thematically arranged, interactive exhibition cubes that set coloured accents within the room. A white Museum Box, that seems to levitate in the Hangar, is chronologically structured: It shows the exhibits in their historic context and forms the core of the staged exhibition.
