Mohave County Jail

Built 1910

Noteworthy as one of the first cast-in-place concrete structures in Kingman, the county jail building was constructed in 1910. Metal floors in the jail cell area are a unique feature which has caused jailers to call the cells, "natural lie detectors." The Mohave County Jail is one of the few historic detached county jail building remaining in the State of Arizona.

Marker can be reached from the intersection of East Spring Street and North 4th Street.
