Alcatraz (United States)
Experience the beauty, history and infamy of Alcatraz Island on San Francisco Bay. You'll be astounded by what you see and learn! Alcatraz and history go hand in hand. Once home to some of America's most notorious criminals, the federal penitentiary that operated here from 1934 to 1963 brought a dark mystique to “The Rock”. The presence of infamous inmates, like Al "Scarface" Capone and the "Birdman" Robert Stroud, helped to establish the Island's notoriety. Yet, many people are unaware of the historical significance before and after it was one of the world’s most legendary prisons.
