The invention relates to a positioning apparatus for an elevator car (3), an elevator and also a method for determining the position of an elevator car (3). The positioning apparatus for an elevator car comprises a plurality of position identifiers (1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E) possessing a readable physical property that are disposed by the side of the trajectory of the elevator car (3) and also a reader device (2) installed on the elevator car (3) for reading a physical property (5) of the position identifiers (1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E). The aforementioned readable physical property (5) of a position identifier is adapted to classify each position identifier according to the intended use of the position identifier into one of two or more optional classes, and in the position identifiers (1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E) belonging to at least one aforementioned class the same physical property (5) is additionally adapted to indicate the linear position (s) of the elevator car.
