Entrance to the prison. The Centre pénitentiaire de Rennes is a women's prison of the French Prison Service in Rennes, Brittany, France. Since 2008, it has been the only women's prison in France. [1] Its operations began in 1878. [2] It was designed by the architect, Alfred-Nicolas Normand.
Some women selected for forced immigration were chained and marched across France, a display intended to deter potential criminals. During a protest by 150 female prisoners in 1719, six were shot and a dozen were wounded; after a freezing winter, they were still shipped to the settlement.
