The Lock-up is opening its doors for the next series of fundraising open days.
On Saturday 15th September you can explore the old Steelhouse Lane cells, which held Birmingham City Centre prisoners for 125 years. View the custody records of some of the former residents and find out about some of our old kit and equipment.
For younger prisoners there are a few fun activities. We have a history quiz, uniform to try on, fingerprinting and lots of pocket money priced items in our shop. You will be let out after your time slot for good behaviour!!
