Kraftwerk Tullnau, Historic power station in Nuremberg, Germany.

The Kraftwerk Tullnau features brick architecture characteristic of industrial buildings, with large windows and a prominent smokestack reaching toward the sky.

The facility began operations in 1896 with three single-phase alternating current machines, delivering a total output of 690 kilowatts for the city.

The transformation of the power station included converting the dynamo hall into a kindergarten and restaurant, preserving industrial heritage for modern use.

The power station's location near railway lines facilitated coal delivery while providing access to water resources needed for steam boiler operations.

The Munich German Museum exhibits this power station as an early example of alternating current electrification in German industrial development.
