Alcatraz was a former federal prison opened in 1934. It was built to imprison the country's most notorious criminals – some of Alcatraz's infamous residents were Al Capone, George Kelly Barnes and Robert Franklin Stroud. Since the prison was situated on a rocky island, it was nicknamed “The Rock”; its location was also meant to deter prisoners from escaping, although a few inmates did escape in 1962. The prison closed its doors in 1963 and today the island is now a popular tourist destination welcoming 1.5 million visitors every year.
Once you've entered the prison you'll have access to self-guided audio tours. Tour around the prison at your own pace and learn about the fascinating history, stories and events that took place on Alcatraz. There are also evening tour options, for those who want to experience Alcatraz after dark.
