The hydroelectric power plant Aarberg is a run-of-river power plant at the beginning of the Hagneck Canal. It can be visited, certainly interesting as a family outing.

It was built between 1963 and 1968 immediately after the Niederried power plant was built. Thanks to great efforts in the environmental field, the Aarberg power plant was the first large run-of-river power plant to be awarded the "naturemade star" quality mark.
