Halden Prison is the World's Most Humane Prison where prisoners eat like princes. Prison guards are not allowed to maltreat the prisoners in any way. In fact they frequently eat meals and play sports with prisoners.
The sitting room
The dinning room
The luxurious library.
The toilet
Halden's architects preserved trees across the 75-acre site to obscure the 20-ft.-high security wall that surrounds the perimeter, in order to minimize the institutional feel and, in the words of one architect, to "let the inmates see all of the seasons."
The bedroom
Exercise is mandatory every morning, and of course they have professional and well trained instructors

Norway's prison guards undergo two years of training at an officers' academy and enjoy an elevated status compared with their peers in the U.S. and Britain. Their official job description says they must motivate the inmate "so that his sentence is as meaningful, enlightening and rehabilitating as possible,"
Dentists, doctors, nurses and even librarians work in the local municipality, preventing a subpar prison standard from developing.
There is a recording studio with a professional mixing board. In-house music teachers — who refer to the inmates as "pupils," never "prisoners" — work with their charges on piano, guitar, bongos and more
Every 10 to 12 cells share a kitchen and living room, where prisoners prepare their evening meals and relax after a day of work. None of the windows at Halden have bars.
