The elevator system, implemented in 2013, represents a modern solution to the centuries-old challenge of ascending Lisbon's steep hills to reach the castle

This transportation infrastructure reflects Lisbon's commitment to integrating modern accessibility solutions within its historical urban landscape

The elevator operates daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, offering free transportation through the Rua dos Fanqueiros entrance in a restored building

Passengers must take both elevator sections and then walk approximately 10 minutes through marked paths to reach the final castle destination
