The first funicular at Petřín Hill was built already in 1891 and its operation was terminated in 1921. In 1932 the non-functioning cable car was re-launched and operated until 1965, when traffic was again stopped for technical reasons. The new cable car was put into operation in 1985 with new cars that still operate today. The track is 510 meters long and exceeds 130 meters. Thanks to the price of 24 CZK per one ride, it is probably the cheapest cable car in Europe.
