The airfield was built by the Soviet Union in the 1975-1985 timeframe and used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot. It consisted of a small runway, a small platform and a hangar-like building to the northeast of the runway

Latvian Aviation listed the airfields condition as 'good'. Sucessor site MyAirfields considers it 'good', noting it is "quite unknown for general aviation community. It offers clean approach from both sides, clear of obstacles and very good RWY condition. Apron sometimes used for agricultural activities."
The airfield is owned by the municipality of Vecbebri, but uncertified, meaning it is officially closed to all taffic.
