		In 1987, the prison was demolished, largely to prevent it from becoming a Neo-Nazi shrine, after the death of its final remaining prisoner, Rudolf Hess, who had been the prison's sole occupant for more than twenty years after the release of Speer and von Schirach in 1966.
		The prison, initially designed for a prison population in the hundreds, was an old brick building enclosed by one wall of 15 feet in height, another of 30 feet, a 10 feet high wall of electrified wire, followed by a wall of barbed wire.
		Hess, also as a matter of dignity, was unique among the prisoners in that he refused all visitors for more than twenty years, finally accepting to see his long since adult son and wife in 1969 after suffering from a perforated ulcer that required his treatment at a hospital outside the prison.

	Tales from Spandau - Cambridge University Press
		It was the only prison for war criminals where most of the prisoners served out their full terms ranging from ten years to twenty years to life.
		Soviet official records on the prison remain closed; British records can only be released to the public thirty years after their generation (meaning that records from 1987 will become available in 2017); and while some French records on Spandau are available, others are closed until the mid-twenty-first century.
		Spandau Prison was thus emblematic of what would become a four-decade Allied assertion – that Berlin would remain under Four-Power governance until all four powers, not just the Soviets, decided otherwise.
