Photo Gallery of Abandoned Prisons and Jails

Below is a photo gallery of abandoned prisons and jails across the United States. Images include abandoned prisons from Virginia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and more. For more information and images of these abandoned spaces, check out the blog posts linked at the bottom of the page.
