The control room of the abandoned transformer house at Kelenföld Power Plant. The building was designed by Virgil Borbíró and was constructed during 1927-1929. The huge opal glass ceiling gives the room an unspeakable atmosphere. However the Power Plant is still operational this building is abandoned and not being used.
