The Neunkirchen JVA was a correctional facility in Saarland.

history

The Neunkirchen correctional facility was, alongside the Saarbrücken correctional facility and the Ottweiler correctional facility, one of the three prisons in Saarland. The prison had two branches in St. Ingbert and Saarlouis. It was the youngest prison facility and was completed in 1952. The building is connected to the Neunkirchen district court . Since November 1987 the institution has been reserved for open execution . A total of 145 places were available, with 53 in Neunkirchen, 42 in St. Ingbert and 50 in Saarlouis. The Neunkirchen JVA and its two branch offices were closed on July 1, 2011 as part of a reform of the Saarland penal system. The execution was handed over to the JVA Ottweiler, which was previously reserved for the youth execution. The Neunkirchen facility was closed until further notice and the St. Ingbert facility was completely dissolved. The Saarlouis facility will continue to operate as a branch of the Ottweiler prison.

Saarlouis branch

The Saarlouis branch was built around 1900 on the longitudinal wing of the Saarlouis District Court and served as a judicial prison until 1945. After the Second World War it was continued as a prison for women. From 1971 to 1987 the institution was a branch of the Saarbrücken correctional facility and then came under administrative law to the Neunkirchen prison .

St. Ingbert branch

The building, erected in 1882, initially served as a Bavarian vocational school and was converted into a local court prison at the turn of the century in 1900. In 1980 it was run as a branch of the Saarbrücken JVA and came to the Neunkirchen JVA in November 1987.
