The Rjukan–Notodden Industrial Heritage Site in Notodden, Norway, is a testament to early 20th-century industrialization driven by hydroelectric power. This UNESCO World Heritage site encompasses the innovative developments initiated by Norsk Hydro, which harnessed the natural power of waterfalls to produce nitrogen fertilizers. The site features a unique blend of industrial infrastructure, including power plants, factories, transportation systems, and workers' settlements, all set against the stunning backdrop of the Norwegian landscape.
