    Tips

    October 6, 2017

    The standard power plants were built from 1943 in the German Reich. Due to the requirements of the war, there was an increased need for electrical energy. Therefore, a number of identical power plants should be built. Construction began here in April 1943, but the lignite-fired power plant was never completed.

    The existing systems were dismantled after the war and taken to the Soviet Union. Only the shell remains. This was used by the police, combat groups and civil defense as a training ground.

    A demolition could be prevented by nature conservationists in 1998, since a valuable biotope had developed in the meantime in the area.
