Rättscentrum, Göteborg, Justice complex in Gothenburg, Sweden
Rättscentrum Göteborg is a complex of buildings in the Skånegatan and Ullevigatan blocks, used by the police, correctional services, economic crimes authority, prosecutor's office and Gothenburg District Court. The police headquarters is on Skånegatan, the detention centre at Ullevigatan 11, and the district court and rent tribunal at Ullevigatan 15 since 2010.
The complex took shape around the police headquarters on Skånegatan, with the detention centre at Ullevigatan 11 and the prosecutor's and economic crime offices on Ernst Fontells plats. Gothenburg District Court and the Rent and Tenancy Tribunal moved to Ullevigatan 15 in 2010. Renovation and extension work has since led to units relocating to Stampgatan and Aminogatan in Mölndal.
The complex is named after Ernst Fontells plats, the address where the Prosecutor's Office and the Economic Crimes Authority sit; the police side is known as Polishuset on Skånegatan. The detention centre at Ullevigatan 11 holds around 400 places, and the District Court and the Rent and Tenancy Tribunal have occupied Ullevigatan 15 since 2010.
