Neumünster prison, Correctional facility in Neumünster, Germany
Neumünster prison is a correctional facility with a circular design and brick and plaster facades located at Boostedter Straße 30. A 685-meter perimeter wall encloses the entire complex.
The facility was built between 1901 and 1905 using a panoptic design that enabled effective inmate observation from central points. This architectural approach has shaped its structure ever since.
The site is recognized as a cultural heritage monument that blends its historical structures with contemporary rehabilitation work. Visitors can observe how the facility serves as a center for reintegration efforts.
The facility provides medical, social therapy, and psychiatric departments to support inmates. Access and tours are subject to strict security protocols that visitors should anticipate.
The newer Detention House B incorporates advanced locking technology that reflects contemporary security design. This addition demonstrates how the site has evolved beyond its original turn-of-the-century structure.
