Goldenberg power station
Goldenberg power station, Architectural heritage power station in Hürth, Germany
The Goldenberg Power Station operates as a heat-only boiler facility with multiple cooling towers positioned across its industrial complex in Knapsack.
The power station began operations in 1914 to generate energy for the expanding industrial needs of North Rhine-Westphalia during the early twentieth century.
The power station represents the industrial development of the region, preserving the architectural elements of early energy production facilities in Germany.
Located at Goldenbergstraße 2 in Hürth, the power station ceased its operational activities in 2015 after serving the region for over a century.
The facility includes the Knapsack air-raid shelter tower, which extends beyond its primary function as an energy production center.
