Hangar-7

Red Bull built a glass-and-steel hangar at Salzburg Airport in 2003 to display its aircraft collection and contemporary art, and added one of Austria's more ambitious restaurants in the same space. The building by architect Volkmar Burgstaller is a curved glass shell that makes the vintage aircraft and Formula 1 cars visible from the outside at night.

Hangar 7 at Salzburg Airport is a free-entry glass-and-steel hangar built by Red Bull in 2003 to house its Flying Bulls aircraft collection, Formula 1 cars, and rotating contemporary art exhibitions. The curved glass building by Volkmar Burgstaller makes the aircraft visible from outside at night. Inside, Restaurant Ikarus hosts a different world-class guest chef every month, requiring advance reservations and carrying a price tag to match. The exhibition areas are free and open daily 9:00-22:00. Bus line 10 from Salzburg Hauptbahnhof. Worth combining with Hellbrunn Palace nearby. This is one of Austria’s most unusual free attractions: aircraft, contemporary art, and one of the country’s better restaurants, all in the same building.
