An elevator is a device for moving people or cargo up and down along a pair of guide rails installed inside a vertical passage (vertical passage) inside the building. The history of such elevators has been started in various forms since BC.

To raise water from a deep well, hang ropes on a couch and hang it on a rotating circular wheel, pull the rope pulling the rope up by hand, or tie a rope to a fixed pulley and attach the heavy and large stone to a high place Elevators can be seen in the elevator's primitive form.

It is said that around 20 BC Archimedes devised the first elevator using ropes and pulleys, and Napoleon hung the rope on the queen's chair and worked it up and down, allowing the queen to move between the layers of the building without using the stairs .

The elevator came into practical use in the nineteenth century. At first, hydraulic or water pressure was used, and the driving method by the current electric motor via the steam engine gradually became generalized.

The motor-driven elevator was produced by Giemens AG in Germany in 1880 and exhibited at a trade show in Mannheim. In Korea, it was first established in 1914 at a shipbuilding hotel.
