Seeing this beautiful and cozy corner, it is impossible to believe that this is a prison!



Yes, you read that right, it is really a prison. More specifically, the Norwegian Halden Fengsel, most humane prison in the world. It is designed for 250 prisoners. About half of them have committed serious crimes - murder, assault, rape. A third of the prisoners convicted for the sale and use of drugs. The main goal - to correct these people and bring them back to normal life. < Website publishes a selection of photos and facts about this amazing place.

The prison is located in the forest. What could be better than one with nature.



Each cell - a bed, a small refrigerator, bookshelf, TV, desk and chair, private bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. On the territory there is a grocery store for the prisoners, where they can buy everything they need for cooking and personally cook it in the kitchen.

In the presence of a well-equipped music studio called Criminal Records, a garden, a prayer room, a gym, for training sessions room, library, computer room, home reception of visitors, and much more. And, of course, the prisoners are given the opportunity to get an education while they are serving their term.













































































The guards regularly communicate with prisoners and engage in joint activities - whether it's a game of volleyball or tea party

Many believe that this prison is too luxurious and stay in it more like a spa treatment, not punishment for those who break the law. The warden is always responsible for it, that the wages of itself does not give good results. The idea is that prisoners have been rehabilitated, remember what a normal life, and do not want more than to go back to old habits.

In support of his words can cite statistics: in Norway, one of those who served and was released again in prison get less than 20 percent. In other countries, this figure is several times larger.
