Overview
The original jail in Green Turtle Cay was a two-story structure that was built in the mid-19th century. However, during a 1932 hurricane, the jail was severely damaged resulting in the upper level of the jail being destroyed. Since then the jail has not been rebuilt, but the Architectural Preservation Foundation of Green Turtle Cay has made the jail one of the many historical features of this community.
