De chamer mit nem Audioguid besichtigige, für üs natürli uf dütsch. Sehr interesant gsi und würkli guet gmacht😄 i glaub de bekanntist Insas isch Al Capone gsi. Kennt glaubs fast jede vo üs.
Was no sehr spannend gsi isch, das es nur 3 glunge isch zum fliehe. Die hend sich würklich mit Löffel durch d‘wand grabe und sind so entcho, gsehnds ufem einte Bild. Jedoch wird vermuetet das die 3 Usbrecher im chalte Meer ertrunke sind. Ganz spannendi Gschicht.

🇺🇸: who doesn‘t know it, the most famous prison in the world: Alcatraz.
We decide to visit it. With the ship we drove 15-20min to the island. It was really cool, you can see a lot. The coolest thing was the jail. We had a audiotour in german. It was so interesting😄 I think the most famous prisoner was al capone. I think all of us hear this name. Only 3 have managed to escape in history. They really dug through the wall with a spoon. You can see it in a picture. However, it is suspected that the three drowned in the cold sea on their escape. Its a very interesting story.
