Discover the Salève cable car, a symbol of the historic connection between Geneva and the mountains.

This guided tour immerses you in its history, from the first ascents to the inauguration of the cable car in 1932—a true technical feat for its time. As you explore the upper station, you’ll discover the secrets of how it works, the challenges of its construction, and the modernist architecture of the upper station designed by Maurice Braillard—a masterpiece in exposed concrete that seems to float in mid-air. An immersive tour blending heritage, engineering, and architecture, offering insight into how the Salève cable car has become an iconic landmark of the cross-border region.
