We rode the Funicular

At the entrance.
Looking up at the track.
The Fribourg funicular is a listed historical monument and unique in Europe... it is actually the only one to run on waste water from the town, which it uses thanks to a system of counterweights. The funicular links the upper part of the town to the lower part. It was constructed in 1899 and is still running today! We rode it for ~2 francs each…
