Description
Modernity is expressed with the semi-circular building, which served as a snack bar with its cantilevered roof. In addition to the effect, it also had the function that people can stand under the roof, e g. if it rained. The larger part of the building is taken up by the transformer station. It is kept in an essentially expressionist style. The clinker bricks are attached as decorative strips above the doors and the ventilation chimneys are carried out decoratively.
