Initially, the airfield served as a training airfield for the 82 pilot training regiment, the later FFS A / B 82 and, until September 1944, the pilot school A / B 3 Guben.
After the Second World War , the Soviet armed forces expanded the airfield to include another runway. During the Soviet occupation, the airfield was intended as a location for MiG-17 . Later, a command post and a special weapons store were created on the airfield site , in which nuclear aerial bombs were stored for the planes stationed on fire.

The hall was inaugurated on November 30th, 2000 and is considered the largest self-supporting hall in the world. In June 2003 the hall was sold to the Malaysian Tanjong Group. On December 19, 2004, the Tropical Islands amusement park was opened in the shipyard . In 2014 Tropical Island had around 910,000 visitors.
