Vyborg Prison, Historical detention center in Vyborg, Russia.

The prison building spans three floors with red brick walls, featuring multiple cell blocks arranged around a central courtyard with guard towers at each corner.

Construction of Vyborg Prison began in 1871 under architect Konstantin Kiseleff, designed to house 1,150 inmates during a period of significant penal system reforms.

The prison reflects 19th-century Russian architectural practices with its brick design and layout, marking a shift toward structured correctional facilities in imperial Russia.

Visitors can reach the prison site by following Lenin Avenue in central Vyborg, with guided tours available through the local historical association.

The facility includes preserved 19th-century cell doors with their original locking mechanisms, demonstrating the technical innovations of historical prison security systems.
