Vazební věznice České Budějovice, Gefängnis in Tschechien
Czech Budejovice Remand Prison is a detention and correction facility located within a justice palace built in 1905 in the city center. The building contains multiple wings with cells separated by security level, holding approximately 290 people, with each person having individual quarters and access to communal spaces.
The facility was established in 1905 as part of a modern judicial complex and has served detention and sentencing functions since then. Over its history it has undergone various reforms and upgrades, including cooperation agreements with European prison facilities beginning in the 1990s.
The facility is open to the public only under specific conditions and special programs, with security being the highest priority. Visitors must follow strict entry rules and respect behavioral guidelines in this controlled environment.
In the early 1900s, this prison was among the first in the region to combine security standards with rehabilitation programs for inmates. This blend of structured design and progressive methods established its reputation as a model facility for prison reform across Central Europe.
