Experience description

Give your sense of adventure a real lift at Volandia, and explore the history of international and Lombardy aeronautics at this fascinating indoor and outdoor exhibition. You'll learn all about the aeronautics pioneers and companies that gave the province of Varese its nickname: the 'Province with Wings.'

The exhibition is divided into five areas: forms of flight, fixed wing, rotary wing, model aircraft and the convertiplane. It tells the great history of flight in all its forms, from pioneer flights in hot-air balloons to the first aircraft in the early 1900s, right through to the convertiplane, the perfect fusion of vertical and horizontal flight.

The Park and Museum of Flight has plenty of indoor and outdoor areas for children, with space dedicated to the different age brackets. For older visitors, there is the simulation area, library, historical archives, convention room and film showings.
