Foynes Flying Boat Museum
The Foynes Flying Boat Museum is located in Foynes, Ireland, and celebrates the history of flying boats during the 1930s and 1940s. The museum is housed in the original terminal building of the Foynes Airport, which was a key stopover for transatlantic flights. Visitors can explore exhibits featuring artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays that highlight the significance of flying boats in aviation history.
One of the museum's main attractions is a full-scale replica of the Boeing 314 Clipper, a famous flying boat used for transatlantic travel. The museum also offers a unique experience with a recreated 1940s-style bar, where guests can enjoy a glass of Irish coffee, which was invented in Foynes.
