Take a step back in time inside a restored 19th century solitary confinement cell at Eastern State Penitentiary. 🕰️ Known as the birthplace of solitary confinement in America, those incarcerated here once spent 23 hours a day in their cells, with just two half-hour breaks in small exercise yards through the door at the back of their cell. Eastern State abandoned this solitary system in 1913, but its legacy remains. Explore the past for yourself on a walk down Cellblock 1. | Eastern State Penite
