EN: This transformer tower is located somewhat off Zofingerstrasse in a residential area in the south of Oftringen.

The three-story station has a gable roof and asymmetrically placed window bands. The former attachments of the overhead lines are still visible, but there are no insulators on them anymore.

The building probably dates from the 1940s and is still in operation.
