Sainte-Pélagie was aprison inParis, in active use from 1790 to 1899. It was founded earlier than that, however, in 1662, as place for "repentant girls" and later "debauched women and girls." The former Parisian prison was located between the current group of buildings bearing No. 56 Rue de la Clef with Rue du Puits-de-l'Ermite in the5th arrondissement of Paris at the old Place Sainte-Pélagie.

The penal structure held many noted prisoners during theFrench Revolution, withMadame Roland,Grace Dalrymple Elliott andMarie-Louise O'Murphy being among the known prisoners. After the revolution, theMarquis de Sade was imprisoned here, as was the young mathematicianÉvariste Galois. During theJuly Monarchy, the "April insurgees" were also detained there, and some managed to escape through a tunnel. The painterGustave Courbet was also imprisoned here for his activities in theParis Commune. He painted a self-portrait titled,Gustave Courbet: Self-Portrait at Sainte-Pélagie.
