Shannon Airport was founded in 1950 by entrepreneur and aviation enthusiast Sidney Shannon Jr. That's also the year he began collecting and refurbishing a series of vintage aircraft, and his collection grew to be the largest private collection of its kind in the world. Visitors to Shannon Air Museum can peruse the collection and learn more about aviation, and grab lunch at the airport's Robin Nest Café.
