Not good for dyslexics, did not take the guided tour +35 per. Sniff so the little one didn't get much out of it.
The sound of all the different tales around was very low.
Lots of stairs and we had a bad walker with, there was no sign along the way about any. Elevators.
A little waste of time.
Of course there is room for the different stories, but there were no more signs for the tour so we were hoping there were some around. Oh no.

A prison that was completed in 1853. Today you can do a media guided tour.
Interesting ... The smells that still prevail there. Furthermore, one can visit an escape tunnel of a prisoner. Definitely worth seeing!

Leaving aside the Covid-19 with long waits to see the cells and 75 min wait to get in, it was a good experience. There are many interesting stories and one should take the time to read the posters.
We slept in jail and it is not as authentic as one might wish. A little too much hotel over it apart from hallways and bathing facilities.
