Elka cable car
The Elka cable car was the longest flat land cable car in Europe. It was put into operation on September 7, 1967 in the Silesian Culture and Recreation Park ( Poland ). The almost six kilometers long route formed a triangle between the Silesian Stadium , the Silesian Amusement Park and the Silesian Planetarium .
In 2007 it was decided to dismantle the cable car. The section from the stadium to the amusement park is now in permanent operation again; the other two routes are also to be brought back up and running.
