Točná Airport (49°59′N 14°25′E / 49.983°N 14.417°E / 49.983; 14.417Coordinates: 49°59′N 14°25′E / 49.983°N 14.417°E / 49.983; 14.417, ICAO airport code LKTC) is a private domestic airport in Točná, Prague 12 in the Czech Republic.

The airport opened as a recreational glider airport on March 31, 1946.[1]

After 1989, the runway was shortened to 550 meters due to disputes with landowners.[2]

In 2008, the airport was purchased by Ivo Lukačovič.[3] The service buildings were rebuilt, the property secured by a fence, a museum and public playground were added, and the runway was lengthened to 870 meters.
