Punta Carretas Shopping is a shopping mall of Montevideo, Uruguay. It is located in the neighborhood Punta Carretas. The shopping center is located in the Punta Carretas Penitentiary building, originally opened in 1915. For decades, this penitentiary and the Church of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart were the only important buildings in the neighborhood. In 1971, in a turbulent time for the country, the spectacular flight of more than 100 prisoners took place, Tupamaro guerrillas. Towards the end of 1986, after an imposing mutiny, it was evicted and remained empty for a few years. In 1992 it was decided to start recycling and remodeling the property. The old Penitentiary opened its doors as the Punta Carretas Shopping in 1994. More information...
