Cable car - Expo Liege 1939

The cable car, the symbol and the attraction of this exhibition, made it possible to cross the Meuse.

It was 1,300 metres long and rose to a height of 100 metres, linking the station next to the Lido to the other station near the Astrid Park.

This cable car, built by the company Ougrée-Marihaye, consisted of 4 cabins running in pairs and a 100-metre high tower weighing 430 tonnes.

Each cabin could carry 30 people, and they stopped for a few minutes at the top of the central pylon so that passengers could admire the superb panorama.
