Tips
  • Gliwice-Trynek Airport (ICAO code: EPGL) - non-certified civil public airport, allowing it to be used, inter alia, by for business, sports and small cargo flights. Located in Gliwice in the Trynek district, with an landing area with an artificial surface.
    Already in 1916, on the orders of the military authorities, the first airport was built in the present place. It was built in the fields towards Boykowo, to which electricity and a railway line were connected. It occupied an area of about 117 ha. Eight aircraft halls were built there, including 2 metal hangars, an engine control station and an administration building. Later, buildings such as an officers' casino, a staff building, apartments for service staff and rooms for an aviation school were built.
    By virtue of the decisions of the Versailles Conference, all facilities at this airport were to be razed to the ground, and the area turned over for agricultural purposes.
