Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

The Ascensor Barón has great urban significance by virtue of being the connection between the Plan de Valparaíso with one of the most tourist scenic viewpoints in the eastern section of the natural amphitheater where sits the city. This viewpoint formed part of the old road to Quillota, which joined Valparaíso to the hacienda of the Siete Hermanas (the land currently occupied by the city of Viña del Mar). Its altitude ranges between 5 and 35 m (16.4 and 114.8 ft) above sea level. The track length is 55 m (180.4 ft) and the journey time is 95 seconds.
Located on the Barón Hill, the funicular connects the España and Argentina avenues, on the flat part of the city, with the Diego Portales street of the hill. It is nearby the Barón Station, which is connected to the rest of the metropolitan area.
Inaugurated on April 17, 1909, its first owner was the defunct Compañía de Tracción Eléctrica (CTE). It was the first electrical funicular in the city,[2] system that replaced the previous water counterbalance system. The electric engine was brought from Germany.[2]
This funicular, along with the Reina Victoria, was owned by the Empresa de Transportes Colectivos del Estado [es] (which was also owner of the dismantled Ascensor Placeres), before being bought by the Municipality of Valparaíso.
