The Deva Fortress Cable Car: How the Area at the Foot of the Fortress Was Transformed
Along with the upgrade of the cable car, the area where it operates has also been transformed. The inclined transport system, control and safety systems, and both stations have been modernized, while the waiting area at the base of the hill has been turned into a pedestrian zone.
This is also where the Tourist Information Center is located, where visitors can get details not only about the Deva Fortress and access routes, but also about other tourist sites and attractions in the city of Deva and throughout Hunedoara County. Brochures, catalogs, and other informational materials are available to help discover more about the region’s tourist attractions.

The restroom facilities have also been modernized, and the ramps for people with neuromotor disabilities have been upgraded to meet current standards and regulations.
