Berlin Airlift Museum Fassberg

Small museum at Fassberg airfield remembering its role in the 1948-49 Berlin Airlift.

The Berlin Airlift Museum at Fassberg airfield is the area's most unusual historical sight. Fassberg was one of the bases used to supply West Berlin during the Soviet blockade of 1948-49, when aircraft kept the city alive with food, coal, and essentials.

It is about 8 km from Müden, so it fits better by car or bicycle than on a casual village stroll. For travellers interested in Cold War history, it adds a sharp contrast to the heathland and timber-framed village scenery.
