(English below) 台南監獄是我在這裡見過在遺產保護的嘗試中最奇特的一個。最初建造於是日治時代,位在市中心附近,80年代初期原址被拆除時,值勤室和部分牢房被保留,但很奇怪地被移到了13公里外的新台南監獄並重建,然後閒置到荒廢。從Google街道實景就可以看到原址慢慢在倒塌,我覺得不能再更靠近因為那是監獄的一部分。如果任何人知道為什麼會發生這樣的事情,請告訴我,我真的很好奇!(From LTN: 勘查、審議後,未能列入文化資產. 在未來會做什麼?)

Tainan Prison is one of the strangest attempts at heritage protection I've seen here. Originally built in the Japanese era it was located near the center of the city. I drew it as part of Old Tainan. The headhouse and part of the cell block were saved when the site was demolished in the early 1980s. Bizarrely it was moved to the new Tainan Prison 13 kilometers away, rebuilt there, and then just left to rot. You can just about see it on Google Streetview slowly collapsing. I don't think it's possible to get close as it's part of the prison. Apparently it failed to get protected status and then was left. What will happen in the future?
