L'isola di Capraia è stata sede, dal 1873 al 1986, di una Colonia penale agricola. Tale colonia penale fu destinata alla rieducazione dei condannati a pene lievi che dimostravano di potersi redimere. Nel corso dei decenni furono realizzate opere di bonifica, costruzione di strade e di strutture di vario tipo. Ora è in rovina e abbandonata.
