The airport was built from May 14, 1938 (groundbreaking by Reich Aviation Minister Hermann Göring) on the "Heidfeld" between Fischamend and Schwechat as an airfield for the German Luftwaffe by Christoph Miller[7] and was designated "Luftwaffenstützpunkt Schwechat-Ost"/"Heidfeld". Five hangars, an aircraft repair shop, several barracks buildings, and a large garage were built. Jagdfliegerschule 5 was housed here; active flying units such as II./JG 27 (II. Group of Jagdgeschwader 27), II./JG 52, and parts of III./KG 51 were also stationed here.
