The Old Transformer Tower in Sulzheim combines history, art, and nature across three levels. For more than five decades, the building served to convert medium voltage to low voltage, thereby securing the electricity supply of the town. With the laying of all cables underground in 2009, the tower lost its original function and was subsequently sold. A private owner took over the structure with the aim of creating a place for encounters. Today, the transformer tower houses public exhibitions as well as events related to art and music. Furthermore, it serves as accommodation for pilgrims, while kestrels and jackdaws find shelter in specially installed nesting boxes. The adjacent garden has also been redesigned and integrated into the overall concept. In remembrance of its former use, the building today again bears its historical name "Old Transformer Tower."
