Fenbrook Institution is the first federal medium-security institution for males to be built in Ontario in more than 25 years and since the inception of the Mission of the Correctional Service of Canada. The facility is located adjacent to Beaver Creek Institution, north of Gravenhurst, Ontario. In February 1997, the new institution suffered a major setback when its chapel accidentally caught fire and burned to the ground during construction setting the project back about a month. The institution's official opening was in 1998. 1, record 2, English, - Fenbrook%20Institution

L'établissement Fenbrook est le premier établissement fédéral à sécurité moyenne pour délinquants de sexe masculin à être construit en Ontario en plus de vingt-cinq ans et depuis le début de la Mission du Service correctionnel du Canada. L'établissement est adjacent à celui de Beaver Creek, au nord de Gravenhurst, en Ontario. En février 1997, l'établissement a subi un contretemps important : un incendie accidentel a ravagé complètement la chapelle au cours de la construction, ce qui a retardé le projet d'environ un mois. L'établissement a été inauguré officiellement en 1998. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%89tablissement%20Fenbrook
