The building's grim interior presents us with an insight into the harsh late
nineteenth century prison conditions and philosophies about crime deterrence,
punishment and rehabilitation.

HISTORY
UNLOCKED

The Dunedin Gaol (formerly the Dunedin Prison) opened in 1898 and was closed as
a Corrections facility in 2007. It is now run by the Dunedin Prison Charitable
Trust.

Designed by John Campbell (1857-1942), Chief Government Architect, the Gaol has
a special and rare architectural value as possibly the only remaining
Victorian-era courtyard design prison in Australasia.

The Gaol remains largely unaltered since its closure in 2007, with its layout
intact and much of its original fabric and features retained.The building’s
architecture presents us with a visual insight into nineteenth century
philosophies about punishment and rehabilitation.




HISTORY
UNLOCKED




The building commands a prominent position in the picturesque and historically
significant Anzac Square urban heritage precinct, within easy walking distance
to Toitū Otago Settlers Museum, the Dunedin Law Courts and Dunedin Railway
Station. The precinct provides a time capsule of Dunedin’s late nineteenth and
early twentieth century architectural glory days.

You can find out more on the Betteridge Conservation plan, our Interpretation
plan as well as more detail on the Gaol Stage 1 and 2 restoration projects.

The Gaol has a Heritage NZ Category 1 listed building classification.

Our popular weekend Gaol tours generally operate from October until the end of
April, and are subject to guide availability.
