Road trip for Technikfans: Industriekultur im Fjordland: In die Gründerzeit Norwegens

Who is often the Treppe who did this? Hessel Haker, 46 years old, can no longer say, but a woman is gentle: “Was the human being busy looking for the beach: You must find your own Rhythmus, never let it run quickly, so you won’t get it. come next Atem and dein Herz were wild to brag.”

Hakers Rat does not sound from one of the few Wanderführers: 4,444 Stufen have not found the schmale Holztreppe in the historic wasserkraftwerkes in Southern Norway. Approximately 1.5 kilometers up the Stiege steep mountain slope, with a high winds of 740 metres. It concerns the long Holztreppe der Welt Sein.

This is a tourist attraction: for the Besucher’s erected journey to Flørli am Lysefjord, where the washing power plant was built in 1916 to supply the electricity to the large city of Stavanger in southwestern Norway.

Damals are an unused sticker for the 200 years of construction they need. Everything material was taken from the Männern mountain lift, manche hatten 80 kilos on the bucket, heißt es. They were taken after weight loss.

After years of war with the first stage of the power plant, a storage tank was built and it could be connected to the network. At the end of the 1990s war of the power plant in operation, a powerful 900 meter installation was built in the mountain, which went through the tunnel.

In car-free workshops

Once the time is up, another company is called upon, in the construction and execution of other types of Kraftwerk that are not needed. It could happen. The Norwegian Alpine Association set itself up for the Erhalt and set up a café in the historic Kraftwerk, which the Dutch Haker 2016 übernahm.

Cars are not in the winzig Flørli, the street next door. Besucher reisen mit der Fähre ab Lauvvik östlich von Stavanger an. Ausflugsfahrten voor de Passagiere der riesigen Kreuzfahrtschiffe, who stops in Stavanger, does not plan to plant: Flørli am Lysefjord is free from mass tourism.

Flørli with seinem Jugendstilkraftwerk is one of the Orte in the Norwegian Fjordland, the beispielhaft for the industrial Blüte des Landes around 1900. With the Nutzung von Wasserkraft comb the Energieversorgung in Schwung. Electricity is supplied by the Grundlage for the Bau von Fabriken, etwa for Dungemittel, Zink, Aluminum and Stahlerzeugung.

I am unknown

Ortswechsel nach Høllesli, is the entrance to the 40 kilometer long Lysefjordes. Here begins the Landschaftsroute Ryfylke, the interesting tourist sights of the Fjord region führt. 18 Landschaftsroutes would be one of the Straßenverwaltung des Landes geschaffen en solen Reisende in de unedited regional flight.

So go for the Ryfylke route and the industrial development in the Fjordland. On the way from the tourist hotspots with many photos, the highlights of the Lysefjord are reached. From this extensive Felsvorsprung has certainly seen every picture on Instagram´.

Statistics are a place for Suldal, the self-made Hauptstadt of the Wasserkraftwerke. It may all be different, but it is worth the pumping work of the 3,900-Einwohner-Gemeinde new Prozent des gesamten Norwegian Stromes perform. In the 1970s these stand here in the area of ​​the wasserreichen Flusses Suldalslågen sechs Anlagen.

In Laughing Studio

Vom Inneren der Werke bekommen Reisende allthings nichts zu sehen. Zutritt verboten! So since that kilometer-long tunnel through Stahltore has been cleared. Sie führen von Speicherseen durch de Fjordberge zu riesigen Hallen. In the Cathedrals of Technology, powerful turbines and generators made of green gold are produced from wasserkraft.

Curve um Curve follows the Ryfylke Route through the Suldalslågen, which is one of the best laughing waters in Norway. In the Sandsfossen Waterfall there is a laughing strip, with the fish that make the current winds and the fluvial waters in the Laichplätzen-dependent.

From July to September the hiker saw from the lake of the Suldalslågen, a little more. Tips for a glass of glass come from the fish: Auge in Auge mit den Lachsen. The small Beobachtungskammer am Sandsfossen mark here with an Augenzwinkern as “first laughter studio Norway”.

In the control room

Nächster Stopp ist Nesflaten. The Ortschaft in the Suldal-Gemeinde is an addition to architecture. Design fans come to all countries with “Energihotellet”, from the 1960s with the Benachbarten Kraftwerk grafting stand. Das Hotel serves the Manager of the Energy Center as Unterkunft.

Concrete stillness in the spirit of the times, finally revealing the buildings that were planned by architect Geir Grung (1926-1989). An investigation into the control of the power plant sector: UFO is a fact and can be found the Kulisse for a James Bond agent.

A development of concrete architecture in the Jugendstil period followed Kraftwerk Tyssedal on the Hardangerfjord, where an auto shop was created. One stolzer, white industrial building, 180 meters long, ca. 1908 in Betrieb. 15 Generators produce electricity here. Damit war 1980 abrupt Schluss, een riesiger Felssturz zerstörte de Rohrleitungen und Teile des Bauwerks.

Heute jedoch erstrahlt Tyssedal as Kraftmuseet in new Glanz: a Museum and Industrial Thinkmal with full-fledged Einrichtung aus seiner Gründungszeit, with Turbines, Generators and an impressive Kontrollraum. Dort since Schalter, Schieber, Knöpfe and Uhren fell into precious Carrara Marmor. So remain open and silent in the Cathedrals of Technology.
