Back by popular demand, the Old Jail Museum will be a featured stop on the Tour.
Did you know that the need for a jail was proposed back in August 1873? At the time the only place to hold prisoners was a small calaboose in the center of Brickelltown and there was not nearly enough space for all the ruffians!
