The Old Jail was constructed in 1897.All exterior walls are three bricks thick and all interior walls are two bricks thick. The floor and ceiling of the second floor area are constructed of steel with six inches of concrete above it. The main floor consisted of the sheriff's office, living quarters of the sheriff and family, and a kitchen. The upstairs housed a jailer's room that also served as the hanging room. The jail is now used by the Rockdale County Historical Society as a museum. (Hours of operation are the second Saturday of the month, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. or by appointment by calling 770-602-2606.)
