Our Trip to Folsom Prison







First prisoner registered on July 26, 1880; rated capacity--1,958; number of cells-- 1,700. Additional facility built and first inmates arrived on October 1, 1986 for a combined inmate population of 5,500. Folsom manufactures the license plates for all of California's vehicles and also makes street and road signs.

The various contraband were made by prisoners using whatever they could find inside the prison. Read the "visitor rules" - very intersting.
