About Stirling Old Town Jail

Stirling Old Town Jail stands at the heart of the city's historic quarter. If the outside was forbidding and grim - then it didn't get any better inside.
The Victorian reformers practised what they preached - which wasn't exactly comforting for the poor inmates. 'Coarse food; a dress of shame; hard, incessant, irksome labour; a planned and regulated and unrelenting exclusion of happiness and comfort' was their prescription for the unfortunate souls detained within these walls.
Nowadays The Old Town Jail is an intriguing attraction for visitors to Stirling - and the perfect starting point for exploring the oldest part of the city.
