Electropolis museum begins with a large illuminated scale-model and an audio commentary intended to highlight the importance of electricity in the modern world. This is followed by the history of electricity from Antiquity to the 21C, by way of sometimes unusual objects. There is something for everyone, from multimedia exhibits to an electrostatic theatre, whose exhibits will literally make your hair stand on end, without forgetting the museum's pride and joy, a massive 170-tonne steam machine.
