About the Funicular

The facility opened in 2024 and was awarded the "Prémio Valmor" that same year. It has been closed in recent months for a technical safety inspection and has received renewal of its “Operating License” from the IMT – Institute for Mobility and Transport, confirming that it meets all necessary requirements to operate safely.

The Graça Funicular, recognized for its architectural value with a design by Architect João Favila de Menezes, is a strategic facility for the city’s mobility and serves as a factor for social integration by connecting Mouraria and Graça, two historic neighborhoods of Lisbon.

The area surrounding the facility, which extends up the hill, will undergo landscaping work in the coming months, along with the development of a management concept for public spaces, designed to promote its use and enjoyment by residents and visitors alike.
