Karosta Prison

Karosta Prison in Liepaja is the only military prison open to public in Europe.

Text from Karosta Prison site:

The building was erected about 1900 and until 1997 it has served as a place where military persons served their terms for breach of discipline. Ever since the first years of its existence it has been a place to break people’s lives and suppress their free will.

There are only guided tours available in the prison and those guided tours are very high quality with the show in wich you participate yourself.

You can stay in the prison for the night as well, instead of staying in hotel.

Of course, if you dare to. Because recently Karosta prison has been reported on Ghost Hunters International as one of the most haunted places on Earth.

    Mein Tee fracas inzwischen kalt geworden. Es fracas gerade 1.00 Uhr geworden (am Radio waren form Nachrichten). Ich machte mir neuen Tee und dachte mir innerlich: ‘Noch zwei Stunden, dann ist es 3.00 Uhr.’ Auf dem Tisch standen noch anatomy Medikamente. Ich machte mich wieder an style Arbeit.
