Funiculaire du Tréport, Inclined elevator in Le Tréport, France.

The Funiculaire du Tréport connects the lower town to the cliff top through tunnels, covering a 76-meter elevation difference at a 64% gradient.

Built in 1907 and inaugurated in 1908, the funicular served as transportation until 1941, when military installations during World War II led to its closure.

The elevator passes through the Cordiers district, a former fishing neighborhood where residents specialized in line fishing rather than using nets.

The current automated system, reopened in 2006, operates daily without charge and completes each journey in under two minutes.

Four separate compartments traverse brick-vaulted tunnels, providing views of the English Channel and the town during the ascent.
