Centre pénitentiaire de Rennes

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. The prison also inspired the name of the character “Rennes”, from the 1997 Canadian horror film Cube.
