Lawena Museum – the history of electricity
Liechtenstein Power Stations operate a museum of electricity in Triesen.
The age of the exhibits range from 1910 to the present day. This dedicated exhibition explores the history of the iron, the electric stove, the washing machine, the radiator, the vacuum cleaner and much more. The museum offers fascinating insights into the development of electric domestic equipment over 100 years.
