TMZ has learned where Plaxico Burress is expected to serve part of his 2-year prison sentence -- a place more than 100 years old.
Plaxico is currently in the Manhattan Detention Complex, but Plaxcico's lawyer, Ben Brafman, tells us Plax is expected to be shipped to the famous Rikers Island correctional facility and then quickly moved to the Fishkill Correctional Facility in upstate New York.
We're told Plaxico will spend a total of 4-6 weeks going through the Rikers and Fishkill systems -- while authorities determine where Plaxico will spend the bulk of his sentence.
FYI -- Fishkill, which was constructed in 1896, was originally used as a hospital for the criminally insane.

Former NY Giants star Plaxico Burress just pled guilty to illegally possessing the gun that shot him in the leg while he was at a Manhattan nightclub last year.
He'll be sentenced on September 22 -- the prosecution recommended two years in prison.
The judge says Plax will get two years or less ... unless he screws up before he gets sentenced.
Geez, one bad night...

The NY Giants' giant moron known as Plaxico Burress just arrived to court in NYC today to face one felony count of second-degree possession of a concealed firearm. Plax was busted last year after he accidentally shot himself while he was in a Manhattan nightclub. There are rumors of a plea bargain, which Plaxico's lawyer denies.
