Rummu Quarry: A Submerged Prison
Rummu Quarry is a submerged limestone quarry located in Rummu, Estonia. However, it was established as a prison in January 1938. In the same year, after the mining of the Vasalemma limestone began, a quarry was also founded and it became a penal colony and a prison camp. When the limestone and marble industries gained importance, the prison inmates were used as a source of labor. The original name of the prison was Murru, the name Rummu is affiliated with the area much larger than the actual prison area. The prison was closed in January 2013.
