It is one of the city's curiosities. The people of Fribourg are very attached to their unique funicular. Classified as a historical monument, it dates from 1899. It runs on the energy of the city's waste water, via a system of counterweights. The journey is short (2 minutes) but so efficient to reach the lower town (Neuveville and Auge) in the centre. It is used regularly by the inhabitants and is an integral part of the cliff. It is like a decor, a living sculpture that animates sometimes one district, sometimes the other.

Malgré l'odeur (les eaux d'égouts sont utilisées pour mouvoir le funiculaire) parfait moyen pour descendre en basse-ville
