Prigioni Nuove is a historic prison located in Milan, Italy. Built in the late 19th century, it was designed to house male inmates and is known for its distinctive architectural style. The prison operated until 2012, after which it was closed due to various issues, including overcrowding and the need for modernization. Today, Prigioni Nuove stands as a symbol of the challenges faced by the Italian penal system. The building has been the subject of discussions regarding its future, with proposals for redevelopment and potential use as a cultural or community space, reflecting the ongoing dialogue about prison reform in Italy.
