Situated inside the town’s former jail, the Old Jail Museum tells the history of Hayesville and about some of the notorious criminals who were once locked away inside its cells. This 1912 building features most of the original jail cells, furniture, and other items that were used by the sheriff.
The museum houses a collection of vintage photographs of the town as well as Cherokee artwork, quilts, and baskets. Visitors can also step into a connecting building which was used by a local doctor and features his medical instruments, desk, and log books.
