EN: This transformer tower is located at the street Ausserdorf in the west of Oberflachs. The station belongs to AeW and is still in operation. However, there are no more overhead lines.

The tower probably dates from around 1925. The tower, which was designed with great attention to detail, has some special features such as the round-arched door, the wood-clad gable and the unplastered stone blocks in the corners of the foundation.
