Student Jail (Studentenkarzer)

I went over to see it. I want tickets, 3 euros a person, which is a bit unworthy. It is a place where students are closed. But it is not managed very tightly, students will be very free inside, and they will be proud of being closed.

Heidelberg's student prison guards some children who are disruptive! I wanted to punish them, but I didn't want to be a graffiti paradise for children... ​​​ Can you exaggerate a little bit more? "Prison" makes you live like "paradise"...

Student prison is one of the attractions open to the public in the old building of Heidelberg University, plus the Heidelberg University Museum and the Old Auditorium. Student prisons were built by students who violated school rules in the past, and students were imprisoned for two to four weeks, but they could still attend classes during the day. To kill time off, students graffiti or poetry on walls to pass the time. Now, the paintings are swanky and youthful. At the prison entrance is a souvenir shop where you can buy small gifts with the emblem of Heidelberg University.

Heidelberg's famous student prison, located in the alley behind Heidelberg University Square, was built in 1712. In the background of time and space, college students were squandered, drunk, troublesome or idle. The police could not close them, so the school set up a "prison". Thinking about the walls in a room with only beds, college students spent time painting ducks on the walls and still seeing colorful wild ducks filling any corner of the building.

It was originally intended to punish mischievous students for making trouble late at night and destroying public goods, but they could not be locked in a real prison, so the school set up such a place to show punishment. The students who "crime" go to class during the day, return to "prison" after class, they paint on the wall, gather together to chat and write poetry, so that students find ways to violate school rules and strive to be locked up here! More than 10 houses are painted in color, and you can see the creativity and tolerance of college students 100 years ago! I am a student haha～

Come to Heidelberg Tourism Student Prison recommended to take a look, here can see countless students on the wall graffiti, here is really eye-opening, just upstairs stunned, it is like walking into a thriller, a bit gloomy horror.
