An elevator system has an elevator car which can move vertically along a vertical track having a vertical guide rail, and can move horizontally utilizing a car transfer device. The car transfer device has a horizontal displacement unit into which a vertical guide rail piece can be integrated, the guide rail piece guiding the elevator car in the horizontal displacement unit. The horizontal displacement unit can be positioned so that the guide rail piece forms a section of the vertical guide rail. The elevator car can be fixed on the guide rail piece during the horizontal displacement by a brake device.
