The Leibstadt nuclear power plant, abbreviated KKL, is located in the municipality of Leibstadt (canton Aargau, Switzerland) on the Rhine near the Aare estuary and the German border near Waldshut-Tiengen opposite the village of Dogern. It went into operation at the end of 1984, making it the youngest of the five nuclear reactors in Switzerland. It generates one sixth of the electricity generated in Switzerland.

Everyone on the Upper Rhine knows him, the cooling tower of the KKL. But close by, it is an impressive building. Which at the same time causes a slight gooseflesh feeling.
