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.
