There's only ONE jailbird left here. Can you find him?
This two-story stone structure served as the fourth jail for Gillespie County, organized in 1848. It was constructed by the firm of C. F. Priess and Bro. in 1885. The ground floor housed a holding area and living quarters for the jailer. the second floor had two steel clad cells located against the east wall and maximum security cells in the center and at the back. The building was used as a county jail facility until 1939.
