Trierer Kabinenbahn, Cable car system in Trier, Germany.
The Trierer Kabinenbahn stretched 375 meters across the Moselle River, connecting the Zurlaubener riverbank to the Weißhaus terrace in Trier.
Built in 1967, this transport system operated until 2001, carrying up to 15 passengers per cabin at speeds reaching 22 kilometers per hour.
The cable car represented a significant engineering achievement in Trier, connecting different elevations of the city while providing views of the Moselle Valley.
During its operational period, the cable car system transported 400 passengers per hour, overcoming a height difference of 53 meters between stations.
After its closure in 2001, attempts to revive the cable car system in 2004 ended following a fatal accident during test operations.
