EN: The transformer substation in the village center of Zunzgen was built in 1920. The architect was Hans Ryf-Eggler. The square tower has a pyramidal roof adorned with a dated weathervane. The arch frieze in the upper third of the building, the round-arched door and the neo-Gothic windows give it a medieval look.

The station is still in operation, with modernized interior technology.
