A visit to Beznau 1, Switzerland's first nuclear power plant and the world's oldest pressurised water reactor still in service.

Every year the plant is subject to a thorough overhaul. The Axpo company wants to keep Beznau 1 running until at least 2023 and to take it off the grid once Beznau 3 is operational. (Pictures: Thomas Kern, swissinfo.ch)
