The Old Logan County Jail is a historic government building at 204 North Vine Street in Paris, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick building, covered by a hip roof with exposed rafter ends. Its main facade has a single-story porch extending across the front. Windows are set in segmented-arch openings, with strap-metal bars set across them in a crosshatch pattern. There are two entrances, one (without bars) for the jailer's quarters, and one with bars that provides access to the cell block. Built in 1903, it is one of the state's best-preserved early 20th-century county jails.[2]
The jail was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
