Near Otok in Bela krajina stands a military version of the DC-3, also known as the Dakota. The memorial is placed beside the Črnomelj–Metlika regional road and serves as a tribute to the wartime airfields of Bela krajina.
This is one of the area’s most recognizable heritage markers. The aircraft is displayed outdoors and is intended for viewing from the outside. It works well as a brief stop on a drive through Bela krajina or as part of a wider route between Metlika, Podzemelj and nearby villages.
According to the local tourism source, the plane was installed in memory of Bela krajina and other Slovenian airfields from the National Liberation War period. The site is also linked to Prilozje Sports Airport, adding another aviation layer to the story.
This is not a museum complex but an outdoor memorial that fits nicely into a day-trip itinerary. You can continue toward Metlika and combine the stop with other heritage or wine-related experiences in Bela krajina.
