The Aviation Museum of Santa Paula celebrates the rich aviation history of Santa Paula and its long-standing connection to the local airport. Rather than a traditional single-building museum, its collection is spread among historic hangars filled with vintage aircraft, restoration projects, memorabilia, and artifacts from generations of flying. With an active aviation community and the scenic mountains of the Santa Clara River Valley as a backdrop, it’s a distinctive destination where visitors can experience aviation history in the environment where much of it was made.
The Aviation Museum of Santa Paula, located at Santa Paula Airport, is an amazing little museum with a lot to see for its size, and visiting during a display day brings even more to see! More of a Museum day than display day, but still plenty of activities and fun for the whole family!
