Suhl-Goldlauter prison as central Thuringian transport centre

The Suhl-Goldlauter prison on the southern slope of the Thuringian Forest was opened in 1991 and since then has provided space for 282 male prisoners in closed (262) and open (20) prisons. The four to five-storey facility is characterised by its modern infrastructure and high security standards.

As the central Thuringian transport centre, Suhl-Goldlauter Prison is responsible for the Thuringian circulation. This means that it is responsible for transporting prisoners between the Thuringian prisons. Goldlauter Prison has specially trained staff and modern transport vehicles that meet the high security requirements. Goldlauter Prison also serves as a Thuringian hub for the nationwide transport of prisoners. Prisoners from other federal states who need to be transported to prisons in Thuringia usually pass through Suhl-Goldlauter Prison.
