Prison Feldkirch

The correctional institution contains 121 cells spread across multiple wings, connected to the Regional Court of Feldkirch along the Ill River.

The prison facility conducted non-public executions in its courtyard until 1947, with the last case involving a double murderer from Altach.

The institution operates internal workshops, including a kitchen, laundry, and carpentry shop, where inmates develop professional skills through daily work programs.

Visitors require official invitations or appointments and must present valid photo identification before passing through security screening similar to airport procedures.

The prison maintains a separate section for female inmates and accepts juvenile offenders for sentences up to six months in duration.
