The Atterheide Airfield is an airfield in the Atter district of Osnabrück, a short distance from the border between the states of Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia.
As early as 1912, the aerobatic pilot Gustav Tweer and other aviation pioneers of Osnabrück were allowed to use the Atter heathlands for flying. From the mid-1920s, the Atterheide was used by glider pilots of the Osnabrücker Verein für Luftfahrt , as Osnabrück's main airfield at the time in the Netter Heide was not suitable for glider take-offs. The take-offs took place on a slightly sloping hillside to the south. On 21 August 1932, the engineer Reinhold Tiling held a flight day here to present his self-developed rockets with 4000 spectators. After the closure of the airfield in Haste in 1935, the use of the airfield in Atter by glider and model pilots increased even more. Flight operations ceased in 1938.
