Музеј старог затвора
Скоро 60 година – до 1953. – Стари затвор је служио као објекат округа Сент Џонс за ситне лопове и окореле криминалце. Забележено је чак осам погубљења, од којих су две биле оптужене убице. Међу групом је и Сим Џексон, који је обешен 1908. након што је убио своју жену жилетом. Данас посетиоци сазнају за злогласног шерифа Перија, који је служио од 1889. до 1897. и поново од 1901. до 1919. Његов стас као „великог, смелог човека” са 6'6” и тежак 300 фунти био је застрашујући чак и за најтврдокорније затвореници. Иако популаран у заједници, Пери се плашио међу становницима ћелија – и мушкарцима и женама – због његове репутације да изнајмљује затворенике локалним фармерима путем система закупа. Посетиоци такође могу да погледају блокове ћелија, вешала и шерифове одаје. Погледајте где су живели шериф, његова жена и деца, одмах на спрату од затвореника, и како су користили сопствену кухињу за припрему оброка за затворенике. Обилазак ове атракције ће посетиоцима показати какав је био живот као затвореника и како је Стари затвор помогао у обликовању историје Светог Августина.

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.

The young people leading the tour were very "in character" however sobering to hear the stories throughout.

The old jail something not to be missed. The history behind it, and the building itself is something everyone should see. Cross your fingers you get to be "processed" by Louie! Louie is a great story teller, and guides you safely all through the grounds! His prisoner performance is something not to be missed.

This is a must-do experience if you visit St. Augustine! Very engaging, and Patrick, our guide, shared the history of the jail in an authentic way. My kids loved it, especially when my husband was selected to be placed in the "birdcage." So fun!
