Tesla coils!
Cool!
And they are big fuckers too!

| | | | Those aren't Tesla coils, but are probably just some sort of spark gap/arrestor..
Interesting place.. It almost looks like a high-voltage transmission line station (500-750kv judging by the length of the insulators on the gantry), but there isn't any switchgear/transformers/reacts/etc.. Lightning safety testing facility perhaps?
you run into some cool stuff! I'll look forward to the update..

The only thing that really resembles a Tesla coil there is the tall insulator with the torus on the top, and were it a Tesla coil you would see a very large secondary coil under the torus (where the insulator is), among other things..
Devices like those are commonplace on very high voltage apparatus, they use a torus (or globe) because it has more surface area available for conduction. It's nothing that is specifically found on a Tesla coil, they only have it in common.
There might be something along the lines of a high-voltage generator in that building that connects to it.. Which would more likely be a Cockroft-Walton or Marx Generator over a Tesla coil if they are testing transmission lines (Tesla coils operate at 'noisy' high frequencies, there are not many real-world applications for this).
