There really aren't many of them here in Germany. Funnily, the only one I ever used was in the UK, in Attenborough Tower at the University of Leicester. Never seen one in Germany, but here's a (probably incomplete) list of known paternosters worldwide: http://www.flemming-hamburg.de/patlist.htm http://www.flemming-hamburg.de/patlist.htm
- KineticLensman 11y agoI used to ride one at the University of Leeds in the 1980s. It served a five floor lecture theater known for its brutalist 1960s architecture [1]. I rode it over the top on several occasions - the car went up one side, slid horizontally and then came down again. It was a good way to queue jump but allegedly could cause the whole system to jam, in which case the people caught in the middle would be carpeted. It's now been decommissioned, apparently.

- junto 11y agoI've been in several of them in Bremen. Cool thing is that they are (mostly) in public buildings. "Haus des Reichs (Senator für Finanzen, Finanzämter)", is basically the tax office. You can walk in and ride up to the canteen and eat (on the top floor). It is also available to be used by the public (though not everyone knows that and assume that it is only for staff).
