About me:

Bands of outlaws and Vigilantes roamed early Montana Territory leaving a path of destruction and death. In an attempt to tame the Wild West, a prison was established in Deer Lodge in 1871. Constructed primarily with convict labor, Old Montana Prison was an active prison until 1979, when it was moved to a new sit four miles west of town. The Prison complex consists five remaining structures. During our Summer season we have two guided tours almost daily, but you can also tour the prison at your own pace with our self-guided tour book. Listed in the National Register of Historic Places Museum Hours Open 7 days a week from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Located at 1106 Main St Deer Lodge, MT 59725 1-406-846-3111 visit our main web site at http://www.pcmaf.org/prison.htm ..
