It is Malta’s largest and main correctional facility; hosting different sections for males, females, and children. The prison takes its name from the hill of Corradino, named after Conradin of Swabia, king of Sicily who in the 13th century also dominated the Maltese archipelago. It is located 5 km from the capital Valletta and currently houses 700 inmates as of 2023, with half awaiting trial. The facility is also a Grade 1 scheduled asset near significant heritage sites, such as the Corradino Lines and Kordin III Temple.
