EN: This transformer substation stands on a footpath through a modern residential neighborhood in Oftringen.

It probably dates from the 1930s and is thus much older than any other building in the vicinity.

The two-story tower has a half-hipped roof, corner pilasters and a cornice below the insulators, which are still in place. The side entrance is protected with a tiled roof.
