Penitentiary Chapel & Criminal Courts
  With your See Tasmania Smartvisit Card, you will receive FREE Entry to Penitentiary Chapel & Criminal Courts.

A National Trust property, this is one of few examples of Georgian ecclesiastical architecture in the Commonwealth. Just 30 years after its construction two wings of the building were converted for use as Criminal Courts, leaving the third as the Penitentiary Chapel, which remained in
use until 1961. Each day Volunteer Trust guides conduct tours of this fascinating complex which features underground passages, solitary cells and an execution yard.

Penitentiary Chapel & Criminal Courts is just one of over 60 attractions that make up the sightseeing pass known as the See Tasmania Smartvisit Card. This smartcard allows you entry and special discounted offers to this attraction and many more.
