About this event
The Winter Model Building Days is a captivating event that evokes
nostalgic memories of childhood through the art of model building.
Organized by the Speyer Association for Aviation History in the
Palatinate (VFLP e.V.), this event brings a festive, pre-Christmas
atmosphere to the spacious space hall of the museum.
Visitors can explore beautifully crafted model railways, colorful
Christmas-themed cars, and winter vehicles that add to the seasonal
charm. Model railways, often seen during the holiday season in
Christmas markets or lavishly decorated store windows, hold a
special place in the hearts of many, especially those who remember
them from the 1980s when they were a common sight in German
households, often adorned with winter scenery.
The Winter Model Building Days, a relatively new event since 2021,
have quickly become popular. The event is expected to grow further,
with more exhibitors and visitors anticipated this year. The Winter
Model Building Days are included in the museum’s admission price,
making it an accessible and delightful experience for all who
attend.
