Outdoor Tour of the Old Jail and Sheriff's Residence

  • Porter County Museum 153 S Franklin Street Valparaiso, IN 46383 USA (map)

Front Lawn of the PoCo Muse

In anticipation of the reopening of the PoCo Muse and the unveiling of the upcoming Old Jail Exhibit, Quinn Albert will be leading a free outdoor tour of the building, highlighting the architectural and historical details of the former Porter County Jail and Sheriff’s Residence (today, the PoCo Muse). Active for 101 years as a jail, the brick and limestone structure has quite a few stories to tell, of which Quinn plans to share a few.
