Itinerary description

I will start to say, it was a very interesting experience, to see and sleep behind bars.
I can recommend it.
NOTE: ALL LOCATIONS IN THE PRISON IS NOT CORRECT

The old prison, is now museum, and experience and description (a lot in English), is still under construction.

See the Prison on a trip with Google Street View - link below:

https://faengslet.dk/museum/virtuelt-indblik-i-museet/

As told, you can sleep behind bars, in a place called "SleepIn" - link below.

NOTE: (video don't work with windows 10, please use Internet Explorer instead).

From Railway Station to Horsens old State Prison about 2,1 km.
