Doors of so-called the 'night cells' of the women's prison, moved here from the castle building. The chamber, measuring 2x1.5 m, had a bunk, a table with a lamp and a washbasin. Mates spent the night here, and spent their days working in different places of the fortress (weaving, leather, etc. production). In the 1890s, the workday began at 5 a.m. and ended at 7 p.m., with three meal breaks and a half-hour rest break. Hard labor or katorga, in a word.
