Tips

The Museum of Gas Industry of Warmia and Mazury was established in 1994 and is located in the historic building of the Gasworks in Górowo Iławeckie.

On May 7, 1907, Landsberg's magistrate decided to build a coal-fired gas plant for the city's needs.

The construction was entrusted to the company Karl Frande from Bremen. It is planned to build a single and triple furnace furnace, a desulphurization plant, an appendix, a gas tank with a capacity of 700 m³, an administration building and an 8 km long gas distribution network. It was assumed that daily gas production would amount to 500 m³.

It was built on the site of the so-called Plague Mountain (formerly the hill was outside the city walls). The Plague Mountain was the burial place of several hundred victims of the plague epidemic that hit the city in 1710. A municipal water tower was also built on the Plague Mountain.

The gas in the municipal gas plant was made of coal. Coal was delivered from the Bulfen mine. In the first years, the gas plant supplied street lighting. Later, private gas consumers were also connected to the network. The plant was opened on September 13, 1908.

In the years 1908-1910, the gas plant was managed by the Central Office in Bremen.
