The city's very first elevator linking the Elías Passage to the Gervasoni Promenade on Concepción Hill.

On December1, 1883, the Concepción elevator, the city's very first, was inaugurated: today, it's the city's oldest working elevator. It connects the Passage Elías, opposite the Turri clock on the city map, "el plano", to the Promenade Gervasoni on the Concepción hill. At the time, the cabins were made of wood and operated on a system of hydraulic counterweights. Today, the system is electric. In 2022, after two long years of restoration, the elevator finally resumed operation!

Un incontournable de la ville
Un ascenseur immanquable de Valpo (pour les intimes) car il vous conduira jusqu'au Cerro éponyme qui regorge d'anecdotes sur la ville.

Avec son entrée à proximité du centre commercial et administratif de la ville, cet ascenseur permet un accès facile aux deux quartiers hauts les plus touristiques de la ville. A la descente la vue est impressionnante donc à ne pas manquer.
