==Correctional facilities==
The [[Kentucky Department of Corrections]] maintains four correctional facilities in La Grange.  Construction began on the [[Kentucky State Reformatory]], the largest prison in the state, in 1937, with the prison opening in 1939. [[Roederer Correctional Complex]], which houses the Assessment and Classification Center where male inmates not sentenced to death enter the state prison system, was built in 1976. The [[Luther Luckett Correctional Complex]] and Kentucky Correctional Psychiatric Center, both built in the same facility but technically two separate prisons, opened in 1983. Approximately 4,000 inmates of various security levels are housed at these institutions.
