The Lac de Sauvabelin (French pronunciation: [lak d(ə) sovab(ə)lɛ̃]; lit. 'Lake of Sauvabelin') is an artificial lake in the Sauvabelin forest above Lausanne, Switzerland.
The City of Lausanne authorised the construction of the lake in 1888, which opened in 1889.[1] A few years later, the Funiculaire Lausanne-Signal was built.
