More than 12 tonnes of dismantled building components, which were 156ft (44m) long and 45ft (14m) wide, were in storage at North Weald Airfield museum.
Essex Police said the stolen hangar parts have the name "Frisomat" stamped on each component. Airfield chief John Havers said: "I thought I was going to faint on the road when I found out it was gone."
"I thought, this can't be true, this can't be happening. I never thought anyone would steal something so large." Mr Havers and his fellow directors had paid £30,000 for the hangar, which would have been worth £100,000 when built, he said.
