Adelaide Gaol

The old gaol is set within Bonython Park. Some of the prison buildings have been kept in hauntingly authentic style, particularly the New Wing where executions took place. The tower, another place of execution at a later date, and the graveyard between the inner and outer prison walls, are also very moving places. There’s information about the inmates and the trials, some of which were based on highly flawed evidence by today’s standards.

A lot of chambers and places were closed

The first time I visited the prison, in fact, I still held a kind of curious mentality. The prison looks very old, but it still feels very special. The various facilities of the prison have been visited one by one.

This is a prison that has been abandoned. In fact, it feels that its building is a bit damaged, but as an ordinary tourist, you can also visit this prison. You can take a look at this European and American prison.

I think this old prison is a very good cultural landscape. You can see the facilities and scale of the prison in the past century. In fact, it is not very large, but it is very interesting.
