Halden Prison, Correctional facility in Halden Municipality, Norway
The concrete and steel structures of Halden Prison integrate with wooden elements and natural surroundings across its maximum-security complex spanning multiple units.
King Harald V of Norway inaugurated Halden Prison in April 2010, marking a shift in Norwegian corrections toward rehabilitation-focused incarceration methods.
Guards and inmates share daily activities and spaces, reflecting Norwegian principles of mutual respect and dignity in the correctional system.
The facility houses 250 inmates in individual cells equipped with private bathrooms, windows, and furniture manufactured from natural materials.
Inmates develop practical skills through access to recording studios, wood workshops, and cooking facilities within secured yet domestically furnished living spaces.
