Old Idaho State Penitentiary (Boise, Idaho)
The Old Idaho State Penitentiary was built in 1870 and in use until 1973. It’s now open to the public and Elisa describes it vividly: “The atmosphere is really old and eerie, and you can almost feel the ghosts of the prisoners that had once inhabited the prison. There is a lot of information and history about the museum available. My favorite part of the prison is the room where the prisoners were executed. It is just a white room, behind a glass window for viewing. ” Sounds fascinating to me!
