About Shrewsbury Prison
Awarded the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award, 9 years running! Shrewsbury Prison is officially in the top 10% of things to do worldwide.
The current prison buildings date back to the Victorian era, built in 1868, although a prison has stood on this site since 1793. The prison was decommissioned by the Ministry of Justice in 2013 and is now open to the public as a unique tourist attraction offering a variety of tours, activities and events, including our popular Guided Tours.
Led by officers, our Guided Tours showcase what life was like, day and night, for prisoners, officers and visitors. During the 90 minute tour, you’ll hear stories from the Victorian period through to the 21st century and explore key areas including: two prison wings (one reputed to be particularly haunted), the exercise yards, segregation cells, healthcare and the chilling execution room, including the condemned man's cell and the executioner's room.
