The Grenoble-Bastille Cable Car, an iconic tourist attraction in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, 2022–2028
The Grenoble Cable Car is one of the world’s first urban cable cars, following those in Rio de Janeiro and Cape Town!
It was built in 1934 on the initiative of Paul Michoud, vice president of the Chamber of Tourism, and Paul Mistral, mayor of Grenoble, followed by his successor, Léon Martin.
From downtown Grenoble, it provides quick access to La Bastille: a military fort built in the 19th century on the hill that gives it its name, overlooking the Grenoble metropolitan area. Also accessible on foot via hiking trails or by car, it is the most visited tourist site in the Grenoble metropolitan area. Don’t wait any longer to discover this place with its exceptional panoramic views—let yourself be carried through the air for a unique cable car ride!
