Another staircase in the abandoned coal fired power plant in Budapest, built 1914 in Art Deco style.

Built in Art Deco style in 1914, closed 2007 - transformer and switchgear building. The small bunker in the centre is providing protection from the threat of falling glass if an explosion were to have ruptured the magnificent glass ceiling. It was built during the WWII.

When it originally opened in 1914, the Power Station was one of the most advanced power centers in all of Europe, however it will likely be better remembered for its ornate Art Deco architecture than its technological wonder. Parts are still used, except the old transformer buildings and the Art Deco control room.
