San Quentin

California Department of Corrections

San Quentin is famous for the San Quentin State Prison. San Quentin was established in July 1852 at Point Quentin in Marin County as an answer to the abundant lawlessness in California at that time. San Quentin housed both male and female inmates until 1933 when the women's prison at Tehachapi was built.

San Quentin is located just north of San Francisco between San Rafael and Sausalito along US Highway 101 near San Pablo Bay

San Quentin is part of the San Francisco, California metro area.
