Areszt Śledczy w Opolu

Areszt Śledczy w Opolu, Detention center in Opole, Poland.

Description

Areszt Śledczy w Opolu is a detention center located in Opole, Poland, where remand prisoners are held. The facility contains four common rooms, a radio station, a library with books for inmates, and cable television access throughout the building.

History

Construction of the Royal Prussian Court and Prison complex took place between 1879 and 1881 during the 19th century. The main building features a distinctive T-shaped design in red brick, reflecting the architectural style of that era.

Culture

A chapel inside serves as a space where prisoners attend religious services regularly. Support groups and rehabilitation programs are part of daily routines, offering inmates opportunities for personal reflection and growth.

Practical

The facility has a health center staffed with medical specialists and nurses who provide care for inmates. It is important to contact the administration beforehand if you need specific information about visiting or access procedures.

A separate branch operates in nearby Turawa, which was once a training center for prison staff members. This division reflects a different chapter in the facility's operations beyond its main location.
