What is the name of the prison in 'Orange is the New Black'?

The prison in 'Orange is the New Black' is Litchfield Penitentiary. It is a fictional minimum-security women's federal prison in Litchfield, New York, where Piper Chapman begins serving her sentence after a past drug-trafficking conviction catches up with her.

Litchfield is inspired partly by Piper Kerman's real memoir, which recounts her incarceration at the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut. The show's prison is not a real federal penitentiary in Litchfield, New York; Litchfield itself is a real town, but the prison exists only in the series' fictional world.

The prison later expands beyond its original setting. After the riot, several characters are transferred to Litchfield Maximum Security, while other storylines move to an ICE detention center. Rikers and Fox River are common mix-ups because both are fictional or real prisons associated with other television dramas, while Shawshank comes from 'The Shawshank Redemption.'
