Visitors to the Schaukraftwerk Schwellöd can witness the development of hydroelectric power generation in Waidhofen from 1923 onwards. The highly descriptive exhibition is entitled “from the Waterwheel to the Turbine” and contains examples of machines from the Kaplan turbine up to the modern power plant. Additionally, it is possible to take a guided tour of the ultra modern, present day, hydroelectric power station. Finally, visitors can hire canoes and boats to go sailing on the Ybbs and, for refreshment, there is a small café and restaurant.
