The “Funi” (short for “funicular”) is Switzerland’s last existing water-powered funicular railway and only a few minutes’ walk from the railway station Freiburg. This nostalgic railway has been operating since 1899 – completely without electricity or exhaust fumes. The funicular is not powered by a motor but by residual water from the upper town. It uses filtered waste water from a 3,000-litre tank and thus overcomes 56.4 metres in altitude.
