For three weeks, visitors will be able to tour the maximum security facility that’s housed Canada’s worst criminals
Members of the public will have soon have a rare and limited chance to go inside the country's most notorious but soon to be closed prison, the first such opportunity in ages.
For three weeks starting Oct. 2, visitors
will be able to tour Kingston Penitentiary, the formidable maximum
security facility that has housed Canada's worst criminals.
The tours, guided by Correctional Service
Canada volunteers, are a fundraiser for the United Way in Kingston, Ont.
Bhavana Varma, president of the local United Way branch, calls it an "exciting" opportunity.
"Many of us have lived here and been curious
about and intrigued by the historic institution," Varma said Friday.
