    Welios (permanent adventure exhibition), catfish

    The Welios is a permanent adventure exhibition on the subject of renewable energies and corresponds to the concept of a science center. The opening took place on April 16, 2011.

    The cornerstone of the Welios was laid in the 1990s by the Austrian Federation of Industrialists. A science center with a distinctive experience character was to be built in Upper Austria. The project development for the project took place in the Energyland project planning group, which developed the idea of a science center on the subject of renewable energies in cooperation with the city of Wels, the state of Upper Austria and partners from business and education. The opening of the Welios took place on April 16, 2011. In February 2011, construction work was interrupted by a fire
