Unusual transport
Sea and mountain
Built in 1929 for the International Exposition in Barcelona, the cable car was the brainchild of the architect Carles Buïgas to join the wharf in Barceloneta to Montjuïc mountain. During the Spanish Civil War it stopped running and the towers that link the cables became strategic attack points. After some remodelling, the cable car route came back into service in 1963 and in the 1990s work was done to modernise it.
A 10-minute flight
Especially appreciated by tourists, the cable car has three stations: Torre de Sant Sebastià, at Barceloneta beach; Torre de Jaume I, in the middle of Port Vell and the Miramar area on Montjuïc mountain. Each day the cabins carry more than two thousand people keen to savour the exceptional views offered by this aerial experience across Barcelona. The journey is three thousand metres long and made in simple cabins, not too different from the original ones.
