Lisbon - Lavra Lift

A short distance from the Avenida da Liberdade, where there is an exit from the Rua das Portas de Santo Antao/Rua S. José, is the Lavra lift. It was opened in 1884 as the city's first funicular railroad and thus constitutes the oldest of the four elevadores still in existence in Lisbon.

From the upper station the following can easily be reached: the Jardim de Torel viewpoint on the Rua de Júlio de Andrade, the Campo dos Mártires da Pátria with its charming park and the memorial to Dr Sousa Martins.
