    In the past high voltage, today high culture: In the old substation you can see art today, the best curators in Brandenburg take care of that in six rooms. They are located in the old switch house and in the former machine house. After around 50 years of operation, the old diesel power plant was converted into a museum for several million. After the fall of the Wall, it became a state museum and today hoards more than 23,000 objects of modern and contemporary art. As far as poster art and photography are concerned, the museum is among the best in Germany. reisereporter.de/artikel/10406-cottbus-10-orte-die-du-unbedingt-sehen-haben-musst

      The Kunstmuseum Dieselkraftwerk Cottbus ... is an art museum in the Brandenburg city of Cottbus and the only museum for contemporary art in the state of Brandenburg. It is located in a former power station building east of the old town in the Goethe Park.
      ... The diesel power station was built as a substation and peak load power station in 1927 and went into operation on April 1, 1928. The system was designed by Werner Issel (Berlin), who designed more than 60 power plants during his career, some of which are exemplary for the power plant architecture of the 1920s, such as the Berlin power plant Klingenberg (designed together with Walter Klingenberg). The electrical equipment came from AEG.
