Stop and read up on the Hydro power plant

Stadtpark West, Rheinfelden With stately trees, a spacious promenade and direct access to the old town for walks, Stadtpark West is a popular retreat. In addition to a marble run, an outdoor fitness course and the Buvette Rhybar, the newly designed pond has also been part of the city park since 2023. Green oasis. With groups of trees, individual trees and some water elements such as fountains and the pond, the park's characteristics correspond to the English landscape garden style. Show pond with native mussels, crabs, geese and fish. The pond was inaugurated in May 2023 by a Rheinfelden kindergarten class. The water birds as well as the fish can be observed by park visitors from two platforms protected by railings. The pond is designed as a show pond based on the concept of the entire city park.

Very beautiful area and nature reserve.

The stately trees and the spacious promenade are a real feast for the eyes in all seasons. The location directly on the Rhine and the spectacular view of the old town facades make the park a popular photo spot.

The double power plant Augst (operator: 80% KWA 20% Canton Basel Land) and Wyhlen (operator: Energiedienst Holding Laufenburg, majority owned by EnBW since 2003) were built together between 1908 and 1912. The 212.80 m long weir has 10 openings, each with a clear width of 17.50 m. Each opening can be closed by a 9 m high iron gate. These are moved by winches that rest on an iron bridge structure above the pillar heads. A concrete weir bridge on the underwater side serves to reinforce the weir. Weir pillars and supports are clad with Black Forest granite. Until 1990, ten Francis turbine groups on both sides generated 2.2 MW each and two exciter groups each generated 440 kW of electrical energy. Since 1990, two of the former ten Francis turbine groups and two exciter groups have been in operation on the Swiss side; the rest have been replaced by seven built-in Straflo turbine groups, each with an output of 5.54 MW. Since 1990, five of the former ten Francis turbine groups and two exciter groups have still been in operation on the German side; the others have been replaced by six installed Straflo turbine groups. There is also a photovoltaic system on the roof of the KW Wyhlen machine hall with an area of 720 m² and an annual output of approx. 70,000 kWh. Since the end of 2017, a power-to-gas pilot plant for the climate-neutral production of hydrogen using electricity from hydropower has been operating on the Wyhlen power plant site.

That's a block! Ancient but still impressive. And how loud the machines were as they drove past

A local recreation area with a large playground and lawns. It borders directly on the Rhine promenade, from where you can hike or walk towards the new Rheinfelden hydroelectric power station. From the city park it is just a stone's throw to the stork's nest tower, through which you can enter Rheinfelden's old town. The park is also home to the charming “Stadtpark/ Gottesackerkapelle”. It was built on the original cemetery.

Somehow there is always a permanent construction site on the power plant here. But also so beautiful to look at and impressive.
