Germany Peppermint Powerplant - February 2020

[ForgottenBuildings]

History:
This power plant dates back to the begin of the 1950s, the reason for this was due to a big modernization the paper mill was in at this time. So a stunning minty miniature power house was made. The power station worked on coal, and was meant to be used as a backup for when the nearby hydro plant was having a weak current. In 2001 this powerplant closed for good, this was due to that the paper mill went bankrupt.

I really liked this small but rather pretty power plant, the minty tiles really gave of a really special and calm atmosphere.
