There are little toy airplanes that kids can pedal in and zoom around. And it's next to the landing strip of the airport so it's great airplane and Zeppelin watching too.

One of my sons had recently read the I survived series with the Hindenburg disaster and I knew just where we could go to fully immerse ourselves into the zeppelin history. Lucky for us the Bodensee is home to the zeppelin and they have a whole museum dedicated to the history of it. If you're ever in the area and are into history the zeppelin museum is a must! Not only do you learn more about the Hindenburg disaster but there's so much rich history to learn here. Some dark history as well being the zeppelins role it played during the nazi Germany regime during WWII. But the ingenuity behind the zeppelin and its role it played to help airplanes get to where they are today is truly mind blowing. This rich in history, totally immersive experience will have you truly amazed. Even for the none-history junkies this was such a cool experience with plenty of artifacts, videos, and even a life sized replica of a zeppelin you can tour for the whole family

There are also pieces from the Graf Zeppelin, and a room full of Zeppelin memorabilia and collectibles. It was nice to see the audio commentary available in several languages, just wish that that the same could be said about some of the text as well. I just wish there was a focus on the DELAG airline, as I feel like that's a lesser known part of aviation history. Either way, if you're an aviation fan, this place is well worth your time.
