The stone house lies well camouflaged in the ditch and is already completely overgrown. It's hard to believe that this is a former power station.
Energy was generated using a flywheel in the nearby stream.
According to the information board, the stream often froze over in winter, which meant that electricity could not be generated. In addition, the uninhibited villagers often left the lights in their houses on excessively because there were no electricity meters back then. 🤪

Small "lost place" and a memorial to the beginning of electrification.
