architecture
The switching house was built in the form of a compact transformer house under a tent roof on an almost square floor plan made of reddish-burned brick masonry. The access is on the ground floor on the north side. Arranged above this are further wall openings for lighting and ventilating the building . An only slightly protruding base zone is visually opposite to the clearly protruding eaves of the tent roof.
The sharp-edged, symmetrical design of the transformer house is emphasized by the execution of the circumferential gutter . In the area of the tower head, three horizontal fields are highlighted. Originally, the overhead lines were connected here via insulators . Below the fields there are three vertically aligned, re-entrant rulings. Roll brick layers respectively accentuate the upper edge of the ground floor, the door / window lintels and sills and lintels the introduction fields below the roof .
