HM Prison Bendigo was a medium security prison facility located in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia. Constructed in the early 1863, the prison officially closed in 2004, and has since been converted into Ulumbarra Theatre, one of the city's largest performing arts venues. Construction on the prison began in the late 1850s and was originally housed both male and female inmates before they were relocated in 1896. In 1942, the prison was handed over to the Commonwealth Government for use as a military prison, though this arrangement ended in 1947. In 1950, the facility underwent refurbishment to be reopened as a state government prison again.
