The building was erected in 1890 and was, for a short period of time, a grocery store. Later on, the house was turned into a normal dwelling.

The Danish Gliding History Club, DaSK, does not put the planes in a museum or hang them under the ceiling. They restore and maintain the planes - and fly with them.
