Justizvollzugsanstalt Gießen, Correctional facility in Giessen, Germany
The correctional institution consists of three separate departments handling closed custody, adult open custody, and juvenile open custody within its premises.
The facility operated as a subsidiary of JVA Butzbach until 1995, when it became an independent correctional institution within the Hessen justice system.
The institution incorporates rehabilitation programs and work opportunities for inmates, reflecting German principles of correctional management and social reintegration.
Visitors can access the facility Monday through Thursday from 8:30 to 12:00 and 13:30 to 15:30, with similar hours on Friday by appointment.
