sliding jail

We were disappointed the jail had been moved from where it originally fell. You can actually drive right to where the jail is now located.

Considering this was a real jail. And it's an old one at that we checked it out. You should list some of the people that were visitors. I'm sure a few of them we might know. Very interesting indeed.

We almost missed this attraction. It looks like some ruins in the dirt parking lot. Had we not seen the people taking pictures we would have completely missed it.It is located just past were the road becomes a one-way street and the traffic can be very busy.It is an interesting 5-10 minute stop. One plaque describes the whole attraction.

The story of this little jailhouse has been stretched nearly as far as the jail may or may not have slid! But it is an amusing story, and if you're in Jerome you will find your way round to it. Unfortunately it is not much to see, and is more intriguing as a story than as a sight.

The sliding jail is a quick and a great place to take a picture. You only need a few minuets. The jail sits by the a cliff with a great view.

Cool sight to see as your walking around town, but certainly nothing to make a special trip for. Half of a jail cell sort of sitting in the middle of nowhere, but interesting none the less.

Took us a few minutes to find it because we expected more. It was pretty much just rubble. The story was pretty interesting. If you happen to be in Jerome I would check it out, but I certainly wouldn't make a special trip to see it.

Where it is isn't where it ought to be. It may appear to be rubble and just laying there...but her history is steeped with mining lore! The way it came to rest and the people she kept! Wind your way up there and check it out. If you see a parking spot...take it.

It's not that exciting, really. Right now it looks like a junk building wreck in the middle of a parking lot. There's very little to say that you've found it but a small plaque. The way the city and parking lot have changed around it, it's hard to imagine where it slid from or what it looked like before it slid 225 feet down hill. It's an interesting story, though, and there are few other buildings in the vicinity which have their own sliding story.

Slid down the side of the hill/mountain about 225 feet where Jerome is located. Surprised how much survived intact

You have to stop by and see the jail... very cool! Can't believe it moved almost 250 feet down the hill!

There is not much to see, but the one building, but it is worth the stop while walking or driving through Jerome. IT cannot be seen from the road. An historical plaque tells of the unique history of the jail

Disappointing. Just a shell of an old building at the bottom of town. Really not much to see, other than to read the historic plaque.

We looked at this old jail and I think it's still on the move or what's left of it is , but it is interesting the rest of the town is great

You can only look at this place. There is information posted stating that the jail was 200 ft. uphill when there was a mine cave in and the jail slid down the hill. It can be recognized as a jail, but it is in pretty rough shape. It is located in an area of galleries, restaurants and stores which is the main business of Jerome nowadays.
