Fremantle Prison is one of Western Australia's premier cultural heritage sites and tourist attractions. It is the state's only world heritage-listed building and the only world heritage-listed site in the Perth metropolitan region.
Built by convicts in the 1850s, Fremantle Prison was used as a place of incarceration for 136 years before being decommissioned as an operating maximum security gaol in 1991.
Visitors can 'step inside and do time' with Fremantle Prison's experienced guides on a range of fascinating tours. 'Convict Prison', 'Behind Bars' and 'True Crime' tours highlight convict and prison life, daring escapes and colourful characters in tales laced with prison humour. Visitors with a spirit for adventure can descend 20 meters below the Prison to explore a one-kilometre labyrinth of tunnels by foot and by boat on a 'Tunnels Tour' or delve into the darker side of the Prison's history at night on a spooky 'Torchlight Tour'.
In addition to its guided tours, Fremantle Prison also features exhibitions in the Prison Gallery, Interpretive Visitor Centre, an onsite cafe and an award-winning gift shop.
Fremantle Prison has also won two Australian Tourism Awards for Cultural Tourism - Gold in 2017 and Bronze in 2018.
