Details
The Old Jail Museum, formerly the Fauquier County jail, is now
the home of the Fauquier Historical Society. Built in 1808, the
front portion of the jail contained four cells, each of which
was approved to house 40 prisoners. In 1823, a new stone jail
complete with hanging / exercise yard, was built to the rear of
the older structure and the 1808 jail converted to a house for
the jailor. Operated as a jail until 1966, this is one of the
most perfectly preserved old jails in the Commonwealth.
