A visit to Britain's oldest prison, The Clink dates back to 1144.
Dating back to 1144, The Clink was London's most notorious medieval prison and is now the oldest prison in Great Britain—although, thankfully, it no longer holds criminals! With a rich and macabre history spanning over 600 years, The Clink witnessed an incredible amount of social and political unrest during its time. Learn about the prison's rowdy, unruly, and vicious inhabitants, ranging from debtors, prostitutes, heretics, drunks, and even religious opponents. Horrific stories and terrifying tales of famous crimes and prisoners; see archaeological artifacts and handle ancient torture devices said to have been used to torment and punish. Located in Southwark, which in medieval times was a vibrant hub of depraved entertainment, take a self-guided tour of the museum, learn the scandalous truth about the medieval prison, and take a photo that you can download after your visit.
