Włocławek Aero Club

In connection with a ten-year period of developing interest in aviation in the city and region, the Board of the Aero Club Branch was elected during a special meeting in 1957.

In the same year, at a city and district (powiat) activist meeting, Civil Committee for Construction of a Hangar and an Airport was established.

The committee received 82 hectares (202 acres) of land in Krzywa Góra near Włocławek, from the Presidium of  the National Council of the district.

Due to the construction of the Nitrogen Plant “Włocławek” in Krzywa Góra, a new location, near Kruszyn, was selected for the development of the airport.

The airport occupied 78 hectares of land on which a harbour building, a hangar, a petrol station and garages were built along with access roads.
