In the imposing brick building of the hydroelectric power station dating from 1907, the Lech and the Lech Valley are now illuminated from a wide variety of perspectives. In addition to information on power plant technology, the Lech Museum shows the development of the Lech in the context of the environment, culture and industrial use. Attractions include the walk-through historical show turbine, a nature trail on the subject of hydropower in the outdoor area of the power station and the replica of a historical Lech raft.
