Pictures of Norwegian Prison, Where Inmates Live Like Kings

Category: World News



It is the Halden Prison. The world's Most Humane Prison where Prisoners eat like princes. On a recent afternoon, homemade orange sorbet and slices of tropical fruit lined the table. Prison guards must not maltreat prisoners in fact they frequently eat meals and play sports with prisoners.

Prisoners health is intact. Doctors, dentists, gynecologists etc are always around.

 They learn to play musical instruments and record their own songs. They compete on Norway's version of American Idol.

Every 10 to 12 cells share a kitchen and living room, where prisoners prepare their evening meals and relax after a day of work. None of the windows at Halden have bars.


There's also a recording studio with a professional mixing board. In-house music teachers — who refer to the inmates as "pupils," never "prisoners" — work with their charges on piano, guitar, bongos and more


Norway's prison guards undergo two years of training at an officers' academy and enjoy an elevated status compared with their peers in the U.S. and Britain. Their official job description says they must motivate the inmate "so that his sentence is as meaningful, enlightening and rehabilitating as possible," so they frequently eat meals and play sports with prisoners


Dentists, doctors, nurses and even librarians work in the local municipality, preventing a subpar prison standard from developing.



Exercise is mandatory every morning, and of course they have professional and well trained instructors


If you know how to do any sports, they will help you become better at it


The maximum sentence in Norway, even for murder, is 21 years. Since most inmates will eventually return to society, prisons mimic the outside world as much as possible to prepare them for freedom. At Halden, rooms include en-suite bathrooms with ceramic tiles, mini-fridges and flat-screen TVs.



Halden's architects preserved trees across the 75-acre site to obscure the 20-ft.-high security wall that surrounds the perimeter, in order to minimize the institutional feel and, in the words of one architect, to "let the inmates see all of the seasons."

Of course there is a library

Dont worry inmates, you will always find your relaxation room well arranged
