Inclined elevator Ringgenberg Bern
Type PICCOLO
The elevator was installed and taken into operation in summer of 2009. The builder and operator is the Ringgenberg parish. The inclined elevator permits persons who have a walking disability, or who are no longer physically able to climb the stairs, to visit the church again. The cabin is large enough for a wheelchair.
The monument-protected church was built in 1671. It is open daily and the elevator is in operation during the church opening hours.
