The Hempstead County Jail was built in 1872. It remained a jail
serving Washington and Hempstead County, Arkansas, until 1939. It was used as a
holding facility for all of Hempstead Counties criminals until the county seat
has moved to Hope and a new jail and courthouse were built.
The old jail sat abandoned for years until it was converted
into a low-income apartment building. After a few years the jails was once again
abandoned. In the early 1980’s the jail was renovated and turned into a Bed and
Breakfast.
