Barabas Luzern Prison
Barabas Luzern Prison Book now
Swiss prison in the centre of Lucerne

Forget about all the boring hotels, here you have a chance to lock yourself up in unique restored prison. Naturally you are innocent. Prison was built in 1862 and held prisoners until 1998. Its name comes after one of the prisoners who served his time until 1975 for conscientious objection. Inside his cell he left a painting with all the things he missed during his stay like money, women and wine. And yes, it's still here to see in one of the cells...umm rooms.

And they are...not so small as you probably imagine and can accommodate either 2, 3, 4 or 6 inmates. Sorry, we meant friends. As a good behaving prisoner you can stroll in the inner courtyard, play football, pool, darts or read a book from the jail library.

Instead bread and water you'll get quite tasty breakfast in the morning, and escaping from here should be a piece of cake if you get bored. Worth every penny!
