A very nice museum, if you have time you should take a guided tour here.
Time is turned back here, the old turbines are still in the museum.

Experience power plant Höngg.
Sound, image and light impressively show how and from which resources we produce electricity. You will learn more about scientific aspects, why economical energy consumption is not only worthwhile for your wallet and how environmentally friendly energy production works.
The ewz Höngg power plant has been awarded the highest ecological quality label "naturemade star". You can see this, for example, on the natural shore design.

The Höngg power plant (until 1973 “Am Giessen” power plant) is a run-of-river power plant on Werdinsel in the Höngg district of the city of Zurich. The EWZ also makes guided tours which can be booked.
