The airport on the Wasserkuppe is located at the place where gliding was - as they say - "invented". As early as 1911, gliding pioneers started their first flight tests with gliders on the treeless Wasserkuppe in the Hessian Rhön. Over time, the site became a busy airport for gliders and smaller powered aircraft.
