Odesa Funicular, Inclined elevator in central Odesa, Ukraine.
The Odesa Funicular consists of two parallel tracks stretching 130 meters along the hillside, connecting Prymorskyi Boulevard with the Port of Odesa.
The original funicular, constructed in 1902 with passenger cabins from Paris, operated until 1969 when it was replaced with escalators.
The transportation system maintains its position as a central element of daily life in Odesa, connecting residents between the upper and lower sections.
Each car accommodates 12 passengers for the 3.5-minute journey, operating from the upper station near the Opera Theater to Morskyi Port.
Following its 2005 renovation, the system transformed from a traditional funicular into a modern double inclined lift, adapting to current technology.
