Wroclaw Airport

Wroclaws airport is located in Strachowice, 13km west of the centre of town. It started life in the thirties as a small German airbase (Wroclaw was part of German territory before the Second World War see our page on Breslau), before taking on civil aviation duties in the 40s and 50s. Strachowice only became an international airport in the 1990s, when flights began to Frankfurt Main, but today you can fly from Wroclaw to Frankfurt, Munich, Cologne, Lipsk Copenhagen, Warsaw and since March of this year to London as well.

You can get to the airport easily enough from town on the 406 bus (from ul. Dworcowa, 100m North of the main train station). It takes 20 minutes and runs twice every hour, so leave a little time.

In terms of facilities the airport has a handful of shops and eateries, a post office, ATM, bureau dexchange, first aid unit and of course being Poland it has a chapel as well.

If you need any more information we suggest you check out the official Wroclaw Airport website. Worth a look if only to peruse the photo gallery of guests that include Jacques Chirac, Gerhard Shroder, Chris De Burgh and Santa Claus.
