      The Isar drives the turbines at the Maxwehr to generate electricity, and these are still in operation today and generate electricity. The course of the river is used by means of three weirs. The Maxwehr is a run-of-river power plant. The building belongs to the Landshut municipal utilities.

        In April 1810, King Maximilian Joseph promised the people of Landshut that he would cover the costs of a new weir. Construction began in May of the same year, 1810. In recognition of the royal generosity, the weir was given the name "Maximilianswöhr" and later "Maxwehr". Until then, it had been called "Kapuzinerwehr" because of the nearby Capuchin monastery, which housed the city's building authority until it was demolished.
