Altes Gefängnis (German for "old prison") is a prison in Swakopmund, Namibia. It was constructed in 1909 by the German Empire and designed by German architect Heinrich Bause.[1] The large main building was used to house the prison's staff, while the prisoners themselves were kept in other quarters.[1]
