After 1945, it was occupied by the Soviet army. By then, it was used as a spare airport. It was never utilized as a primary airport due to its lack of paved runways. Helicopters and piston driven aircraft were stationed here. Additionally, parachute landings were executed at the airport.
The airport has not been used since the Soviet army departed on 15 October 1992. Attempts to put the estate in working order have been made, such as the localisation of a Bahlsen factory. A string of shelters for flood victims has been erected on the grounds.
The airport had a 13/31 grassrunway measuring 2,500 x 60 m (elevation 128 m) and is often referred to as Oława-Marcinkowice after a nearby village.
