Arsenal, Kherson, Military arsenal and prison in Kherson, Ukraine

The Arsenal building displays geometric architectural elements with thick stone walls and multiple windows arranged in a symmetrical pattern.

Constructed in 1784 during the Russian Empire era, the Arsenal initially functioned as a military storage facility before its conversion into a prison.

The Arsenal represents a crucial period in Ukrainian military development, with its architecture reflecting late 18th-century engineering principles.

Located near the center of Kherson, the Arsenal maintains restricted access due to its historical significance and structural preservation requirements.

The building served dual purposes throughout its existence, transitioning from a naval storage facility to a detention center for political prisoners.
