The Chiayi prison was first built in 1922. Since a new prison was opened in Lucao Township, the old prison was transformed into a prison administration museum. Today, the museum still retains the furnishings and environment of the former prison, allowing the public to experience prison life and show everyone the results of preservation and reuse of the Chiayi prison. At the same time, it is also the filming location of more than 50 movies and TV series.
