THE KNAST- prison cell

THE KNAST- prison cell – Venue description

The single cells can be booked as FILM SET or PHOTO SHOOT locations. Overnight stays are not permitted. The former women's prison has approximately five available 8 m² single cells on the ground floor and two available 8 m² cells on the first and second floors. The walls are painted in various rough tones, with original chipping and the resulting patina. The individual cells are empty. If needed, a metal bed can be provided as a prop. The cell doors are wooden in appearance with black fittings. A prison-style window with a high sill and iron bars allows for natural daylight. For film and photo productions, spotlights and technical equipment are available and can be booked externally. All the cells are located in the courtyard area and can thus be combined with the overall motif of the prison and its corridors. Important: Wall painting is allowed in the cells, but not on windows, doors, or in the hallways due to heritage protection regulations.
