Where "jail" (or even "gaol") is used in the UK it's > essentially a synonym for prison. in Germany, the cells in a police facility would not be called a prison, AFAIK there are only “drunk tanks” (Ausnüchterungszelle / sobering cell) and people would otherwise (pre-trial detention) go to a real prison (government facility / de: JVA). There are also other places where people are forcibly confined which aren’t “prisons”, e.g. psychiatric hospitals and nursing homes.
