Trierer Kabinenbahn, Cable car system in Trier, Germany.

The Trierer Kabinenbahn was a cable car in Trier, Germany, connecting the city center near the Moselle river to the higher districts on the surrounding hills. Suspended cabins ran continuously between two stations, covering a short horizontal distance while climbing a considerable height.

The cable car opened in 1967 as a practical response to the steep terrain separating parts of the city. It ran for several decades before closing in 2001, and no replacement was ever put in place.

For many residents, the cable car was a normal part of getting around the city, used for everyday trips as much as for leisure. Passengers got a clear view over the Moselle and the rooftops of the old town as the cabins moved slowly overhead.

Nothing of the cable car remains: the valley and hill stations were demolished from 13 November 2011, and the café attached to the valley station was torn down in mid-2016. The site at the Zurlaubener Ufer and the Weißhausterrasse is now a provisional car park, so there is no route to trace on foot.

The 375-metre line crossed the Moselle and climbed 53 metres from the Zurlaubener Ufer to the Weißhausterrasse. Its 15-person cabins ran at up to 6 m/s, giving a capacity of 400 people per hour. After closure in 2001, a 2004 restart ended when a worker fell five metres at the Weißhaus station and died.
