Fremantle Prison, sometimes referred to as Fremantle Gaol or Fremantle Jail, is a former Australian prison and World Heritage Site in Fremantle, Western Australia.
The site includes the prison cellblocks, gatehouse, perimeter walls, cottages, and tunnels.
It was initially used for convicts transported from Britain, but was transferred to the colonial government in 1886 for use for locally-sentenced prisoners.
Royal Commissions were held in 1898 and 1911, and instigated some reform to the prison system, but significant changes did not begin until the 1960s.
The government department in charge of the prison underwent several reorganisations in the 1970s and 1980s, but the culture of Fremantle Prison was resistant to change.
Growing prisoner discontent culminated in a 1988 riot with guards taken hostage, and a fire that caused $1.8 million worth of damage.
The prison closed in 1991, replaced by the new maximum-security Casuarina Prison.

The Fremantle Prison riot was a prison riot that occurred on 4 January 1988 at Fremantle Prison, in Western Australia.
The riot was organised as a diversion for an escape that was to take place.
Prisoners created a fire as part of the diversion, and temperatures inside the cells were recorded at 52.2 °C (126 °F). 3 division and 4 division were taken over by a total of seventy prisoners, and 5 officers were taken hostage.
The fire caused $1.8 million in damage and unintentionally prevented the planned escape.

The history of Fremantle Prison, a former Australian prison in Fremantle, Western Australia, extends from its construction as a prison for convicts, using convict labour, in the 1850s, through to its modern-day usage as a tourist attraction.
The design for Fremantle Prison was based on the Pentonville Prison in Britain, and it would be the longest, tallest prison cell block in the southern hemisphere.
Construction began in 1851, and was completed by the end of 1859.
The prison was transferred to the colonial government in 1886 for use for locally sentenced prisoners.
Following a Royal Commission held in 1898−99, some changes were made to Fremantle Prison, including knocking down the inner wall between two cells, introducing a prisoner classification system, and constructing internal walls in the main block to create four separate divisions.
A new cell block, New Division, was completed in 1907 and occupied in 1908.

There have been various riots at Fremantle Prison, and other disturbances, over the years that it was operational.
Fremantle Prison was built using convict labour during the 1850s, based on the design of Pentonville Gaol, and was used as the maximum security prison for male offenders in Western Australia.
While there were some reforms following Royal Commissions in 1898−99 and 1911, significant changes to the operation of Fremantle Prison did not begin until the 1960s.
One of the earliest incidents was in 1854, while major riots which occurred in 1968 and 1988 resulted in damage to the prison.

The Southport Correctional Facility was an ultra-maximum-security, or supermax, prison, run by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision.
It was located in the town of Southport, in the Southern Tier of New York State, United States.

Staff and prisoners of Fremantle Prison occupied the former prison on The Terrace, Fremantle, in Western Australia, between 1855 and 1991.
Fremantle Prison was administered by a comptroller general, sheriff, or director, responsible for the entire convict or prison system, and a superintendent in charge of the prison itself.
Prison officers, known as warders in the 19th century, guarded against escapes, enforced discipline, oversaw prisoner work, and instructed inmates in trades.
Officers worked under stringent conditions until they achieved representation through the Western Australian Prison Officers Union.
Convicts were initially of good character, as potential future colonists, but eventually less desirable convicts were sent, until the end of transportation in 1868.
As a locally run prison, Fremantle's population was generally short-sentenced white prisoners in the 1890s, with very few Aboriginal prisoners; however, by the late 20th century, most prisoners were serving longer sentences, a higher proportion of them were violent, and Aboriginal people were over-represented.
