Hoa Lo Prison, nicknamed the "Hanoi Hilton" by American POWs, was originally built by French colonists in 1896. Today the surviving south wing serves as a museum documenting both eras of incarceration.
Built 1896–1901, the prison held Vietnamese independence activists during French rule and American pilots during the Vietnam War (1964–1973). Most demolished in the 1990s.
