"Awesome, spine chilling experience. It made the trip."
Ever wondered what it’s like to be a held in the custody of
Comrades Stalin & Lenin in the USSR , accused of crimes against the State?

WHAT HAPPENS?
You will get the opportunity to feel what is like to be treated like a military prisoner in Soviet times. Your "visit" will last 2-3 hrs, longer if you want, during which you will get a taste of prison life under the supervision of Soviet Guards, including
Red Army Guards
  • Solitary Confinement
  • Stark Prison Cells
  • Convict Photo & Prison Registration
  • Barking Soviet Prison Guards
  • Prison Uniforms
  • Interrogation Suite
  • Hard Labour, well not quite so hard, think more Washing Up and Star Jumps
Afterwards you will meet the guards and chat over vodka and pickled gherkins, local style, while admiring your Arrest Card....

You too can be a Soviet Prisoner!
............................. Unique chance to experience life as a Soviet military prisoner …. and SURVIVE!

Soviet Police Force
HOW REALISTIC IS THIS?
Hammer & Sickle
Genuine military prison originally built by Tsar Nicholas I for the Russian Imperial fleet and later used by the Soviets – it hasn’t been modernised since! You really can feel how depressing and scary life was as a Red Army prisoner. Untouched since the Russians left…… and you arrived!
