Lugano

The ultramodern funicular connects Lugano’s railroad station with the city lower down.

The funicular in Lugano dates back to 1886 and has always been a key means of public transport. At the time, it was the first installation of its kind to incorporate an Abt passing loop. It provides a link between the city center and the railroad station higher up. Since fall 2016, its two ultramodern funicular cars have reliably ferried passengers in comfort along the route Lugano Città – Stazione FFS. The interior design is consistently styled throughout for public transport applications and offers an attractive opportunity to sit back and relax.
