Sankyozawa Electric Centennial Museum (Sankyozawa 100 Year Electric Historical Center)
Tohokudenryoku Sankyozawa Denki Hyakunenkan, 東北電力三居沢電気百年館
The birthplace of hydroelectric power generation in Japan and features a functioning century-old hydroelectric plant (operating in a demonstration capacity) that remains connected to the power grid. In addition to being able to view the hydroelectric turbines in operation, a small museum and children's exploration area is on-site, albeit in Japanese-only. Immediately adjacent to the hydroelectric facility is the Sankyozawa Traffic Park and a Shinto shrine. Note that the museum frequently hosts visiting engineering delegations so don't be surprised if the museum suddenly gets crowded.
