Two Jails in Virginia City Reborn as Home and Memory

A long article recalls two Virginia City jails. One brick structure housed inmates since 1860s, while a log jail later became a museum relic. Karl Sauerbier buys the second jail to convert it into a home, removing bars and creating a porch and garden to erase prison imagery. The piece blends local history with vivid anecdotes of sheriffs, prison life, and escape legends from the old mining town.
