In truth, this is a tiny jail -- it has only six cells -- built in 1876 and used until 1969. It's now a local historical museum, although one of the cells has been left as it was so that tourists can sit in it (The lock was removed when school kids kept locking each other in.).
The other five cells are filled with exhibits, including the only known wood carving of Custer's Last Stand -- by a local clockmaker -- and a small model of the U.S.S. Pueblo -- a Navy spy ship that bumbled its way into the hands of the North Koreans -- which was built and launched here. [Roadsideamerica.com Team, 12/02/2005]
