Hannover Airport was opened in Langenhagen in 1952, replacing an old airfield within the city limits of Hannover. In 1973 two modern terminals were opened, which became famous because of their compact design.They became the archetype for the Sheremetyevo International Airport in Moscow. Airpot has three terminals A,B,C. Terminal D is a rebuilt hangar which is exclusively used by the Royal Air Force to supply British troops in the north of Germany.
In 2000 an S-Bahn connection was established between the airport and Hamelin via Hannover Central Station. Trains leave every 30 minutes for a 17 minute journey.
From 1957 to 1990 the airport hosted the Internationale Luft- und Raumfahrtausstellung, Germany's largest airshow.
