An airport that breathes history. The airport was founded with the help of aviation enthusiasts who decided to build it in the territory of the city of Holíč. During the Second World War, it served as a reserve in Bažantnica near Kopčian in limited areas and in the possession of the army. After the liberation in 1945, it again came under the administration of the city. One of the enthusiasts owns a meadow near the airport, which he made available to expand the airport and make it more functional... An airport that breathes history. The airport was founded with the help of aviation enthusiasts who decided to build it in the territory of the city of Holíč. During the Second World War, it served as a reserve in Bažantnica near Kopčian in limited areas and in the possession of the army. After the liberation in 1945, it again came under the administration of the city. One of the enthusiasts owns a meadow near the airport, which he made available to expand the airport and make it more functional. Thus, in 1947, the airport began to receive new life under the registration of the Slovak National Aeroclub. Together they bought 2 pieces of Piper L-4 aircraft and a school glider SG-38 Gleitr from the army surplus from the then UNRY. They built the first wooden hangar and clubhouse, where members of the aero club met. In 1951, the aero club came under the Zväzarm army organization and aviation technology was expanded. They were Z 22 Junák, Z 381, Z-26, Z 126, Z 226 Trainer, biplane C-104, and gliders such as the German Kranich, Z-24 Krajánek, LG-125 Šohaj, VT-109 Pionýr and others. At the beginning of 1954, the training of sports parachutists and the education of conscripts for military paratroopers began at the airport. The oldest Aerotaxi station with Z-381 and Aero-45 aircraft was also established at the airport, serving nearby businesses as well as private passengers. A powdering station of Agrolet and Slov-Air was also built here for three surrounding districts. Today, the premises of the former Slov-Air are privately owned. In the years 1960 to 1980, there was a big boom in the construction of hangars and buildings, and the aircraft park was expanding with new machines. Currently, the airport is used by Aeroklub Holíč as well as by private aircraft owners who have their hangars built on the airport's area. Airport basic data: RWY 04/22 - 1200 x 100 meters, ELEV. 162 m / 531 ft, FREQ - 123. 680
