Ehrenbreitstein inclined elevator, Inclined elevator at Ehrenbreitstein Fortress, Koblenz, Germany
The glass cabin travels along a 260-meter track with an elevation difference of 94 meters, connecting the Rhine riverbank to Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.
The elevator, constructed in 2011 for the Bundesgartenschau event, replaced an older tram system to provide modern access to the 19th-century military fortress.
The transportation system forms an integral connection between the Rhine River valley and the fortress, enhancing accessibility to exhibitions and cultural events.
Operating from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM daily, the elevator accommodates 25 passengers per trip and moves at a speed of 2 meters per second.
The automated level control system maintains cabin stability while navigating inclination angles between 14 and 27 degrees throughout the journey.
