A detainee has died while being held in Canberra's prison, the Alexander Maconochie Centre.

ACT Corrections Minister Shane Rattenbury said the 29-year-old was found dead last night after another detainee alerted staff.

There were no disturbances in the prison at the time and an inquest will be held.
