Historic Tempelhof International Airport (aka Berlin Templehof) is scheduled to close in October 2008 due to reduced use and rising costs.
One of the world’s oldest, still-operating commercial airports it began operation in 1923. It once served international long-haul airliners but in recent years has been handling mostly commuter flights. Its buildings — prominent among examples from the Nazi era — will be preserved.
