Långholmen - A Prison History — Brofiket, Stockholm

Join us on Långholmen - an island of striking contrasts. It once housed a women's spinning mill and later became Sweden's largest central prison for men. Walk through the prison environments and hear stories of punishment, daily life, and the people behind the walls. At the same time, you encounter the island's other side with allotment gardens, greenery, and summer tranquility. A story about freedom and captivity, where history remains present.
