The "mother of all airports", according to Sir Norman Foster, is a huge relic of the interwar era. The terminal building, built between 1936 and 1941 immediately south of the city centre, was the hot spot of the Berlin airlift (Berliner Luftbrücke) in 1948-49, but closed as an airport on October 30, 2008. In 1951 a monument was added to its entrance square - then renamed "Airlift Square" -to commemorate the airlifts over the Berlin Blockade. The airport was featured in movies like Billy Wilder's One Two Three. Nowadays, the airfield is a spacious park with many visitors in summer and fall. The terminal building is still fascinating - the halls and neighbouring buildings, intended to become the gateway to Europe, are still some of the largest structures in the world. The terminal building is used as a venue of fashion weeks or fairs. In the 21st century, the former airport was a hot-button political issue: First Tempelhof Airport was the subject of a failed ballot measure to keep it open as an airport. A few years later, a ballot measure to prevent new construction on its outskirts was successful, thus preserving the urban open space at the cost of an exacerbated housing shortage.

柏林-坦普霍夫機場是一座坐落於德國柏林的商用國際機場，位於坦普霍夫-舍訥貝格區內，曾是柏林三個主要機場之一。由於經營虧損嚴重，坦普霍夫機場已在2008年10月31日停止營運，所有航班均轉至由柏林-舍訥費爾德機場於2020年完成擴建的柏林布蘭登堡國際機場。柏林的另一主要機場柏林-泰格爾奧托·利林塔爾機場亦關閉，所有往來柏林的航班均在新的布蘭登堡國際機場起降。 坦普霍夫機場於1923年8月10日被德國交通部登記為機場。原本的航廈於1927年竣工。後來納粹政府為了應付日漸增加的航空交通，於1930年代中期開始大規模改造此機場。機場仍然運作時，它經常被認為是世上最舊而且仍然運作的機場之一。 坦普霍夫機場是歐洲其中三個戰前最具代表性的機場之一，另外兩個包括倫敦的克羅伊登機場（現已關閉）以及巴黎的勒布爾熱機場。它在1948-49年柏林空運中扮演了重要的角色。本機場最大的設計特色是其巨大的航廈，它更曾是世上20座最巨型建築之一。相反，機場中的免稅店卻是世上最小的。 儘管有人反對，坦普霍夫機場已於2008年10月30日終止所有業務。一項反對關閉機場的無約束力公投於2008年4月27日舉行，但因投票率低而失敗告終。現時機場被改為公眾休憩處，稱為「坦普霍夫公園」。
