There the prisoners were made to labor in the castle's smithy. The ''Nya smedjegården'' was founded in 1636 at the street Drottninggatan in Stockholm. From 1664 onward, it was the site for prisoners awaiting death penalty in Stockholm. The building housed also a house of correction, an infamous torture chamber ''(Rosenkammaren),'' until the abolition of torture in 1772, and an orphanage ''( Allmänna Barnhuset)'' until 1886. Until 1849, the prison was used for both male and female prisoners—normally not kept separate from each other. Then ''Smedjegården'' was transformed into a women's prison.
