Trebević via Sarajevo Cable Car, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Under its original name, uspinjača, or funicular, the cable car began operating in 1959. According to available records, the opening of the funicular in May of that year was attended by Sarajevo citizens as well as members of the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as honorary passengers. The 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics further highlighted the importance of the funicular, which connects the Old Town with Mount Trebević. For the safety of visitors, the funicular’s operations have been suspended several times — in 1977, 1982, and 1987. During the war that began in 1992, it was completely destroyed. It was renovated and officially reopened on April 6, 2018, on Sarajevo City Day.
