Old Idaho Penitentiary Site
The Old Idaho Penitentiary Site was built in 1870, and the first prisoners arrived two years later. That was also when it was first opened to Idaho. The prison had one cell at one point, but now it has several cells. In 1973, the prison closed, and now people visit to see it and its history. There used to be over 13,000 inmates there, but no one is imprisoned anymore. People go there all of the time, as long as it is open.
