St Malo St Serva Airfield

The primary reason for the airfield's closure was urban expansion. As the city of Saint-Malo grew, the Saint-Servan district developed around the airfield, making its operations increasingly incompatible with the surrounding residential and commercial areas. The land became highly valuable for urban redevelopment. Furthermore, the proximity of the larger and better-equipped Dinard-Pleurtuit-Saint-Malo Airport (LFRD) meant that regional air traffic could be consolidated there, rendering the smaller St Servan field redundant.

The site of the former airfield has been completely redeveloped and is no longer recognizable as an aviation facility. The land is now occupied by a mix of urban infrastructure. Key features on the former airfield grounds include the Stade de Marville (a large sports complex with football pitches and an athletics track), the Parc d'Activités de la Moinerie (a business and commercial park), and various residential housing developments. There are no visible remnants of the runways, hangars, or other airport structures.

Established in the 1930s, the St Malo St Servan Airfield was a key center for general aviation in the region. It was the home base for the local flying club, the 'Aéro-club de la Côte d'Émeraude', and served private pilots for leisure flying and flight training. During World War II, the airfield was requisitioned and used by the German Luftwaffe as a satellite or auxiliary field. After the war, it returned to civilian use and continued to be an important part of the local community's aviation activities until its closure, hosting air shows and private flights.

There are zero plans or prospects for reopening the airfield. The land has been fully and permanently re-purposed for urban use. The extensive development, including a major sports complex and business park, makes any return to aviation activities physically impossible and economically unfeasible. The region's aviation needs are comprehensively served by the nearby Dinard-Pleurtuit-Saint-Malo Airport.
