Have you ever wondered what lies behind these imposing walls? This is the Justizanstalt Feldkirch, the only prison in Vorarlberg, a state in Austria. The prison is situated right next to the Landesgericht Feldkirch, the regional court for Vorarlberg. It’s a fascinating place, with a history stretching back to the 19th century. The Justizanstalt Feldkirch has seen its share of stories, from the darker days of public executions to the modern-day focus on rehabilitation. The prison has a capacity of 121 inmates, with various departments for different types of offenses, including a special unit for women and young offenders. While the prison houses those convicted of diverse crimes, it also houses other people who await trial. Interestingly, the prison also has a unique feature: a roof with two levels and a gabled shape.
