Jedburgh Castle Jail & Museum Admission
Step inside Jedburgh Jail and uncover the dark and fascinating history of one of Scotland’s most atmospheric prison museums. Set within the imposing walls of a 19th-century Howard Reform Prison, this immersive experience offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of life behind bars for those who lived—and died—within its cold stone cells.
Your general admission ticket gives you the freedom to explore the jail’s eerie corridors, original cell blocks, and grim exercise yard, where echoes of the past still linger. Discover the stories of the prisoners who served time here, from petty criminals to those accused of more sinister deeds, and learn about the reform movement that sought to change the future of incarceration.
With stunning views over historic Jedburgh and a reputation as one of Scotland’s most haunted sites, Jedburgh Jail is a must-visit for history lovers, ghost hunters, and anyone with a curiosity for Scotland’s past.
