Filaret Electrical Plant, Historic thermal power station in Bucharest, Romania.
The Filaret Electrical Plant features red brick architecture with tall metal windows, incorporating design elements from industrial structures in Lille, France.
Built in 1908 by Societe du Gaz pour la France et l'Etrangere, the plant contained the largest generator groups worldwide, with 420 KW Siemens-Schucker equipment.
The former power station structure stands as a testament to early 20th-century industrial development, showing the rise of electrical infrastructure in Romania.
The industrial building is located at General Candiano Popescu Street number 3A in Sector 4 of Bucharest, near public transportation routes.
One of the original Diesel Carels engines from the plant is preserved at the Dimitrie Leonida Technical Museum in Bucharest.
