    The Eglisau power station is an old hydroelectric power station with a boat lock. The power of the water is very noticeable here. The power station can also be visited in groups on request. Quiet border crossing, also suitable for walks to Switzerland or Germany.

    The power plant Eglisau, above Herdern delivered electricity in April 1920 for the first time. The power station is a listed building and is being restored to its original condition. Some of the facilities are on German territory, the power plant building on the Swiss side. It is currently undergoing extensive refurbishment and new machinery groups.
    For groups there is the possibility to visit the power plant when registering.
