Muzeum Starego Więzienia
Przez prawie 60 lat – do 1953 roku – Stare Więzienie służyło jako ośrodek dla drobnych złodziei i zatwardziałych przestępców w hrabstwie St. Johns. Odnotowano nawet osiem egzekucji, z których dwie były oskarżonymi o morderstwa. Wśród tej grupy jest Sim Jackson, który został powieszony w 1908 roku po zamordowaniu swojej żony brzytwą. Dziś odwiedzający dowiadują się o niesławnym szeryfie Perrym, który służył w latach 1889-1897 i ponownie od 1901 do 1919 roku. Jego postura jako „dużego, odważnego mężczyzny” przy 6'6” i wadze 300 funtów była onieśmielająca nawet dla najbardziej hardkorowych więźniowie. Choć popularny w społeczności, Perry budził strach wśród mieszkańców celi – zarówno mężczyzn, jak i kobiet – ze względu na swoją reputację wynajmującego więźniów miejscowym rolnikom za pośrednictwem systemu dzierżawy. Zwiedzający mogą również zajrzeć do bloków cel, szubienic i kwater szeryfa. Zobacz, gdzie mieszkał szeryf, jego żona i dzieci, na piętrze od więźniów i jak korzystali z własnej kuchni do przygotowywania posiłków dla więźniów. Wycieczka po tej atrakcji pokaże zwiedzającym, jak wyglądało życie więźnia i jak Stare Więzienie pomogło ukształtować historię św. Augustyna.

Old Jail Museum
For nearly 60 years – until 1953 – the Old Jail served as the St. Johns County facility for petty thieves and hardened criminals. There were even eight recorded executions, two of which were accused murderers. Sim Jackson, who was hanged in 1908 after murdering his wife with a straight razor, is among the group. Today, visitors learn about the infamous Sheriff Perry, who served from 1889 until 1897 and again from 1901 until 1919. His stature as a “big, bold man” at 6’6” and weighing 300 pounds was intimidating even for the most hardcore of inmates. Though popular in the community, Perry was feared amongst cell inhabitants – both male and female – for his reputation of renting out prisoners to local farmers through a leasing system. Visitors can also take a look at the cell blocks, gallows and sheriff’s quarters. See where the sheriff, his wife and children lived, right upstairs from the prisoners, and how they used their own kitchen to prepare meals for the inmates. A tour through this attraction will show visitors what life was like as an inmate and how the Old Jail helped shape St. Augustine’s history.

Had a great time at the jail tour with Patrick. Overall loved the history. Bathrooms were nasty and facility was very dirty, smelled bad.

Benny was a great guide through the tour. He was charismatic and funny. His speaking volume was low at times. He was a good story teller.

We were recommended that we visited the jail and we weren’t disappointed. Had a great visit. It’s a small museum compared to others but the tour guides put a lot of energy and enthusiasm into the tour which made it work for us. Definitely worth a visit
