Mobilong Prison

Mobilong Prison, situated on Maurice Road in Murray Bridge, South Australia, is a low to medium-security facility accommodating up to 472 male prisoners. Established in 1987, it was the first open-campus prison in Australia, featuring self-contained cottages and cell blocks. The prison emphasizes rehabilitation through education, vocational training, and various programs aimed at reducing re-offending. Prisoners engage in industries such as bakery, metal fabrication, and concrete product manufacturing. Cultural initiatives include the Nunga Healing Circle and visits from Aboriginal Elders, fostering community connections.
