Funiculaire d'Évian-les-Bains, Heritage railway line in Évian-les-Bains, France.
The funicular connects the lakeside town center to elevated areas through a 750-meter track with five stations and a 140-meter underground section.
Built between 1907 and 1913, this electric funicular transported guests between mineral water sources and grand hotels until operations ceased in 1969.
The funicular stations feature decorative earthenware tiles that reflect the architectural style prevalent during the early 20th century French thermal resort period.
The free service operates from late April to mid-September, with departures every 20 minutes between 10:00 and 19:30, except during lunch break.
Each of the two wooden and steel cars contains five compartments and can transport 60 passengers while offering views of Lake Geneva.
