Sex entrepreneur Beate Uhse is one of the well-known Germans that learned how to fly in Rangsdorf, a small airfield 30 kilometres outside Berlin. In the laidback village, tucked away in a residential area on dead-end streets, is the former airport.

It is surprisingly huge. Initially your attention will be caught by the traffic tower and the adjoining two halls. But around the corner you will more and more hangars, used to build planes and maintain them. It is a fascinating discovery, which will take several hours to completely sift through.

According to reports there was a lot of construction going on in 2024 so it is unclear how long this urbex site will continue to exist.
