Relatively new structures at Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Airport in Salzburg. On the right is Hangar 7, the Red Bull Aircraft museum, and on the left is Hangar 8, a museum Maintenance Hangar.

The museum Hangar is by no means a typical hangar; it is one of Salzburg's top contemporary attractions: a private airport hangar owned by the founder of the energy drink company "Red Bull", Dietrich Mateschitz .

Hangar-7 was built to contain Mateschitz's private airplane collection, consisting of a growing number of small, not so small and some large historic and contemporary planes, helicopters and several vehicles such as Red Bull Racing Cars

An older hangar did not provide sufficient space for the collection, and so the Austrian architect Volkmar Burgstaller started planning a new building for Red Bull in 1999.

The construction of Hangar-7, essentially a massive glass dome, started in 2001 and in the summer of 2003, the building was opened during the Salzburg Festival.

In front of the museum (Hangar 7) are two Alphajets late of the German airforce, both visible above and at the placemark.
