Our Trip to the Heidelberg University Student Prison

Heidelberg University Student Prison

    Heidelberg University is the oldest university in Germany, and the Heidelberg University Student Prison was such an interesting place to visit. It was actually something that students tried to get in trouble so they could get thrown into jail. There was a door that led to the building where they had classes so they could still go to class and come back while in student prison. There are pictures of some of the students and then there’s the graffiti they drew all over the walls. The student prison was open from 1823-1914 and ended when WWI started. Love that there was some Perkeo graffiti – Perkeo was the keeper of the Heidelberg Castle wine barrel.
