If anyone is interested in run-of-river power plants, this is just one of them on the Ruhr. More are further down the Ruhr, Witten Hohenstein and up the Ruhr, at the Hengsteysee dam, which supplied the electricity for the pumps of the old Köpchenwerk. Among other things, these buildings are always architectural eye-catchers from the 1920s to 1930s.
