Description
The shortest cable car in the world, only 66 meters longs, has been transporting the citizens of Zagreb between the Upper and Lower Towns for the last century. It was opened in 1890 and until 1934 it was driven by steam. It has maintained its original look and construction until today and that is why it is a protected cultural monument. The lower station is located on Tomićeva Street which leads to Ilica – the longest street in Zagreb, while the other station is located at the base of Lotršćak Tower, on the Upper Town's Strossmayer promenade.
