In Gschröff, Austria's probably first hydroelectric power plant went into operation.
It is interesting to note that the energy transmission was originally planned for the upstream factory using wire ropes. During the construction it was decided to produce electricity on site.

Built in 1888 and one of the oldest river power stations in Austria

When I visited, only one turbine was running. It was very noisy in the building. I don't want to know how loud it is when everyone is running.
