Toronto Aerospace Museum

The Toronto Aerospace Museum (TAM) is dedicated to developing an exciting educational, heritage and tourist attraction at Parc Downsview Park, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1997, we are an important year-round attraction within Parc Downsview Park, Canada’s first urban national park. The Toronto Aerospace Museum is located in a building that isn’t just full of history, but is part of history from the days of fabric and wire biplanes of the 1920’s to the dawn of the space age and Canada’s first satellite, launched in 1962. This historic building at Downsview is the original 1929 home of de Havilland Aircraft of Canada Ltd., one of Canada’s most successful aircraft manufacturers. It’s also the oldest aviation heritage building in the Greater Toronto Area, the oldest surviving aircraft factory in Canada, the birthplace of many famous Canadian-designed aircraft, and the original home of Canada’s world leading space technology industry.
