Description: Vemork Hydroelectric Plant as it looks today. The picture shows the building lying behind the Norsk Hydro hydrogen production plant (now demolished). In the (now) demolished building, a Special Operations Executive (SOE) Team in 1941 (Operation GUNNERSIDE) blew up heavy water production equipment in order to sabotage the German efforts towards an Atomic Bomb.
