International Electrotechnical Exhibition of 1891 on the site of the former Western Railway Stations at Frankfurt am Main
The transmission route

The 1891 International Electrotechnical Exhibition was held between 16 May and 19 October on the disused site of the three former Westbahnhöfe (Western Railway Stations) in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The exhibition featured the first long-distance transmission of high-power, three-phase electric current, which was generated 175 km away at Lauffen am Neckar.[1] As a result of this successful field trial, three-phase current became established for electrical transmission networks throughout the world.
