      August 2, 2021 in Norway ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      the most amazing thing there was not the station in the first place although it is really nice... we parked the truck and a fishermen 🐟 came over and asked if we are interested in some fish. "sure" we said and he took us to his fisher shed. in there he gave us a big bag of fresh fish as a gift... what a friendly gesture! i ❤️ norwegians!
      but now some information about the station... this is a hydroelectric power station and museum located in tyssedal. the station is an architectural highlight and was designed by architect thorvald astrup. it started production in 1906 and operated at a combined installed capacity of 100 MW from 1918, with an average annual production of 700 GWh. the plant was protected by the norwegian directorate for cultural heritage in 2000. they have a small cafe with chairs outside (wonderful view) and offer only coffe. but if you are lucky they also prepare some waffles for you. it just felt like family 😍❤️.
