Especially good for history buffs. We learned that the prisoners had electricity before the townsfolk because they were experimenting on it.

Being a history buff I really enjoyed the experience of seeing the prison and learning about its past, good and bad. Grounds are buildings are in excellent condition and the fellow at the gift store was very accommodating and answered all our questions. Would recommend...More

Lots of history, shows how the wild west treated prisoners. Worth the admission fee. Easy to get to for those driving.

Educational and interesting. Hard to believe prisoners could stay there rspecially in the hot Yuma summers. If you can take the tour, it explains a lot more about prison

Nice museum highlighting former inmates and history. The Yuma High School was once located on this site. First place to have electricity in Yuma County. You can tour some of the original cells and imagine what it must have been like to be there.

Hard to believe that some men did time more than once! This is a great place for the whole family and there are even guided tours if you want the most informed visit!

Taken a lot of company here they loved it we have been there about 14 times including the western days they have
