The object of the Museum of the Electric Economy of Kosovo or the "Prizrenasja" Hydroelectric Power Plant is located in the picturesque environment of the Lumbardhi Gorge, 2.5 km from Prizren. It was built in 1926-28 with the contribution of citizens and bank loans. The building was designed and built by an Austrian company from Vienna. The facility had the modern elements of that time: water turbines, the part for cleaning water from waste, the channel, the equipment for conveying water to the turbine and the 160 KW generator. Due to the great demand for electricity in 1936, the second generator with the same capacity was launched. The museum functioned until the mid-80s of the last century. In 1979, this important building for the industrial history of the city was transformed into the Kosovo Electricity Museum. After a long period of lack of maintenance, in 2011, with a donation from the Embassy of the United States of America, the restoration project was drawn up by QRTK Prizren and CHwB, while the restoration works were done in 2012.
