Originally a military grass airfield in use before 1920. It was enlarged before WWII and improved by the United States towards the end of the War. It was handed back to French control in Jun 1945.
Seemingly oblivious to its presence, the local town was permitted to encroach on its western margins, until the site became untenable for light aviation. From 2007, the writing was on the wall and after a yo-yo of opening and closing from 2011, it was finally forced to close in early 2013.
