Ancienne prison, Historical prison in Pont-l'Évêque, France
The former prison structure stands as a rectangular building near the center of Pont-l'Évêque, featuring distinct architectural elements from multiple centuries of construction.
The building served as a detention facility for over two centuries, marking a significant period in the evolution of the French penal system during modern times.
Within the stone walls of this former correctional facility, generations of inhabitants witnessed the transformation of French justice practices and social reforms.
The structure maintains its external historical features while modifications through time have adapted the internal spaces to accommodate different administrative purposes.
The rectangular layout of this prison deviates from traditional French penal architecture by not including the standard perimeter walls found in other facilities.
