Ring & Maple Leaf

Located in Lynchburg, this trail stop along the Quilt Trail is part of Moore County, within the Middle Tennessee region.

MAIN INFORMATION

When Moore County was formed, one of the major tasks facing the newly elected Moore County government was finding quarters for the governmental bodies. The county officials set up shop in churches, store buildings, and houses acquired by the new county, but it was obvious that special accommodations had to be made for the housing of prisoners. And so a jail was the first building to be designed and built especially for Moore County. In 1893, the County Court appointed a Jail Construction Committee to acquire a lot on Main Street. This facility operated until construction was completed on the new Moore County Jail in 1990. The Moore County Historical Society obtained the old jail building when the new jail was completed. It was opened as a museum in 1991.

The Museum is open 12:00 am till 3:00 pm. Thursday, Friday, Saturday and closed Holidays. Adults $1.00 donation Children under 16 FREE. Group rates available. Handicap accessible. Memorabilia & historic artifacts on exhibit. Authentic cells, vintage clothing, and Moore County History displays.
