Kaliningrad Devau Airport is a small general aviation airfield and sport airport located 3.5 km northeast of Kaliningrad. Opened in 1921 as the main airport of Königsberg, it is one of the oldest passenger airports in the world.
The airport was built at the site of the former Kalthof proving ground of the Prussian Army on the road from Königsberg to Labiau , named after the nearby village of Devau. First flights were conducted here already before World War I. In 1919, per the terms of the Versailles treaty, the "Polish corridor" had separated East Prussia from the main part of Germany. The main building was designed by the architect Hanns Hopp, who was the architect of several public and private buildings erected in Königsberg in the 1920s. The airport gained a tram link to the city, a couple of miles to the south, in 1924.
