- Abstract
This article discusses the physical structure of prison buildings in the Spanish provinces of León and Zamora during the early 19th century. The author comments on the design and infrastructure of these prisons based on historical documents and archives of the Secretaría de Cámara y Gobierno de las salas del crimen de la Real Chancillería de Valladolid (Chamber and Government Office of the Valladolid Royal Chancery). These documents were written in an attempt to reorganize the prison system of these regions, focusing on their architecture and social aspects.
