Sesselbahn Plabutsch, Cable lift system in Styria, Austria.
The Sesselbahn Plabutsch operates as an aerial transportation system connecting the district of Gösting with the summit, covering 825 meters of distance.
Built in 1954, the lift system transported over 1.1 million passengers until its closure in 1971, including service to a mountain hotel constructed in 1966.
The lift represented a significant advancement in mountain accessibility for the region, enabling both locals and tourists to reach higher elevations with minimal effort.
The system rises 331 meters from the base station at 425 meters to the upper station at Fürstenstand, completing the journey in approximately six minutes.
Only the lower station remains today, standing as a structural remnant of the original installation that operated through various seasonal conditions.
