Georgetown Energy Museum
During the early days of electricity many small hydro-electric plants were built to provide power to mines and the towns that grew up around them but few are still in operation. This one has been supplying power since 1900 and provides enough electricity for 700 houses. Visitors can view the generators, old electrical appliances and displays about electricity.
The building has steps up to the entrance so it’s not accessible. The interior is accessible with ramps at all of the steps which doesn’t make a lot of sense without an accessible entrance.
The parking areas are large enough for vans and small RVs. Larger RVs can be parked along Griffith Street. Sixth Street is narrow and busy so use one of the other streets to get to Griffith if you have a large RV. Museum
