The Aeronautics Museum of Trento was originally built in 1929 by Italian engineer Gianni Caproni. After having been closed for several years due to World War 2 and renovation works, the museum was reopened in 1992, displaying an exhibition of 17 historic aircrafts.
Besides housing a vast collection of some of the rarest and most fascinating aircraft prototypes in the world, the museum is also a member of the European Aircraft Private Club (EAPC) and shows numerous appliances produced by Italian and foreign enterprises. Many of them are unique pieces.
Every year, the museum organises interactive exhibitions, airshows and events on aircraft modelling. It also collaborates with several aeronautic and scientific organisations.
