Listed on the National Historic Register, the Old Washington County Jail has served as a museum for more than fifty years. Originally constructed in the 1790’s, the first jail at this location was a wooden structure with cells upstairs for prisoners and quarters downstairs where the jailer and his family lived. In 1858, the existing two-story granite cell block replaced the old wooden structure. The South County History Center, founded in 1958, operates a museum, archive and genealogy library here The mission is to preserve and interpret the material culture of South County through exhibits and study collections.
