Ruthin Gaol

Film Hub Wales Non-Member

Ruthin gaol is the only purpose-built Pentonville style prison open to the public as a heritage attraction.

People can spend time exploring its nooks and crannies and learn about life in the Victorian prison system. See how the prisoners lived their daily lives: what they ate, how they worked, and the punishments they suffered. Explore the cells including the punishment, ‘dark’ and condemned cell. Find out about the Welsh Houdini and William Hughes who was the last man to be hanged there.

Pop-up cinema screenings take place at the Gaol in partnership with TAPE who also run the Coastline Film Festival.
