The Electricity Museum was inaugurated in 2006. It is located on the bank of the Tagus river, in Lisbon and occupies the building of the important Central Tejo, built 1914/1919, that supplied the city during most of the 20th century.
c'est un beau musée, j'aime bien la deuxième photo avec le pont en fond it is a nice museum, I like the second photograph well with the bridge in bottom
What a glorious building and I love the huge art work! It reminds me of the modern art gallery in the old Battersea power station in London. Very cool!
Congratulations on the award. Well deserved. I love this building! The brick work is great and I love the long narrow windows. I could picture this building sitting somewhere in the midwest of the U.S.
It's freaking unbelievable that people were afraid of electricity back in the days. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is a very good example for this anxiety. Nowadays we have a whole museum just dedicated to electricity. That's great progress!

Another set of superb photographs. It just strikes me as humorous that there is a museum dedicated to electricity...
I suppose it makes sense, I mean, not much is as important to the modern world than electricity...
Maybe they have paintings of fuse boxes?
;-))

The mural on the old water tank is terrific and the fact that they put an electricity museum in a disused power station.
The final photo has some good line work in it, JM.
