EN: This transformer substation is located next to the entrance to the cemetery of Zwingen.

The building is uncharacteristically low, only about one and a half floors. Above the arched entrance there is a small window in the gable, which is also arched. At the back there is a small extension with a tiled roof.

The station is labeled with the name but has no further information e.g. about the operator. The station is still in operation, Currently there is an open request to increase capacity, but I could not find any more published details.

DE: Diese Transformatorenstation steht neben dem Eingang zum Friedhof von Zwingen.

Das Gebäude ist untypisch niedrig, nur etwa eineinhalb Stockwerke. Über dem rundbogigen Eingang gibt es ein keines Fenster im Giebel, das ebenfalls rundbogig ist. An der Rückseite gibt es eine kleine Erweiterung mit Ziegeldach.

Die Station ist zwar mit Namen beschriftet hat aber keine weiteren Informationen z.B. zum Betreiber. Die Station ist noch in Betrieb, z.Z. gibt es ein Gesuch zur Erhöhung der Kapazität, ich konnte aber keine veröffentlichten Details finden.
Creation date: unknown (1950s/60s?)
