Thriges Kraftcentral

Thriges Power Station is a well-preserved industrial building containing a rare intact interior from the infancy of electrical engineering. The power station is owned by the real estate company Olav de Linde, but has since 2007 also served as a visitor point under Møntergården. Particularly interesting is the opportunity to see the original B&W diesel generator from 1923, which is started up every month. The generator is started on the first Sunday of each month by the Diesel Group, which consists of a number of volunteer engine experts, so that the public has the opportunity to see and hear the old machine in operation.
