A key anchor attraction of the Hunter, Maitland Gaol has a vibrant history spanning more than 150 years. After housing some of Australia's most hardened and notorious criminals, Maitland Gaol closed as a Correctional Institution in 1998.
The cell doors have now been swung open, with visitors invited to serve a small amount of time learning about the facility, past prisoners and daring escapes.
Maitland Gaol offers visitors the opportunity to indulge in self-guided tours, however the best way to interpret this unique attraction is to take a themed-guided tour or torchlight tour by night. Only the brave can battle a group sleepover night.
The Gaol is also burgeoning as a venue of choice for special events.
