In contrast to the usual construction of prisons at that time, terms such as "humane" and "dignity" were at the forefront in the Soeht7. The large windows, vaulted corridors as well as ornate decorations and ornaments avoid a cramped prison feeling. Since 2010 no one has been imprisoned in the prison after the last inmates have been moved to Zehlendorf. In 2016, the key bund of the monument came into creative hands and has since been built as a place of encounter and creativity. We would like to invite you to see this location live. We are looking forward to your request! SOEHT 7 - Former Women's Prison - Local area description The Soeht 7 is located in Soehtstr. 7, a special place in Lichterfelde-West, in the south of Berlin.
