Architecture & history The prison was built in 1906 by three German architects. Back then this aesthetic architecture in Germany was exceptional and the prison fitted into the bourgeois environment. The vaulted corridors, large windows, and floral and ornate patterns prevented a dark and gloomy prison atmosphere and allowed rather human conditions for the inmates. The last inmates left the women's jail in 2010. Since 2016, the large keybund for the entrance and cellars has been in creative hands. Since then there has been a colorful life, characterized by artists, musicians and art lovers, a meeting place for art & culture. Stop by and visit this location, we are looking forward to your inquiry!
