Fact: Provost Dungeon is older than our country!
Old Exchange & Provost Dungeon的点评
点评：Fact: Provost Dungeon is older than our country!
The British originally owned it and used it as a commercial exchange and customs house. Also used as a post office, prison, and city hall, it is currently a museum. In addition, in 1788 South Carolina approved the US Constitution here.
Yet another testament to the rich history of Charleston, Old Exchange, and Provost Dungeon a fascinating places to visit. Built in 1771, it has changed roles countless times: it was a British dungeon during the American Revolution, an elegant hall during George Washington’s 1791 visit to Charleston, and a meeting place for the ratification of the Constitution,
In 1780 the British occupied Charleston for two years and housed many prisoners in one large cell in this basement making it a provost, or dungeon. Because of the awful conditions here, disease was rampant due to crowding, and no bathroom facilities. Under these conditions, many people died while in prison here. This prison held all types of people, including American and British soldiers, private citizens, and slaves.
The first and second floor of the building is home to a museum dedicated to the other uses of the Exchange Building.
Fee: Admission to this historic building is only $12 for adults. For a small fee, a guided tour through the lower level and you can learn a lot from the guide.

翻译：真相：教区长地牢比我们国家还要古老！
它最初由英国人拥有，用作商业交易所和海关大楼。它也曾被用作邮局、监狱和市政厅，目前是一座博物馆。此外，1788年，南卡罗来纳州在此批准了美国宪法。
查尔斯顿、旧交易所和教区长地牢的悠久历史再次印证了它们，它们都是令人着迷的景点。它建于1771年，曾无数次地改变角色：在美国独立战争期间，它是英国的地牢；在1791年乔治·华盛顿访问查尔斯顿期间，它是一座优雅的大厅；后来，它成为了批准宪法的会议场所。
1780年，英国占领了查尔斯顿两年，并将许多囚犯关押在这间地下室的一间大牢房里，使其成为教区长地牢。由于这里条件恶劣，拥挤不堪，没有卫生间，疾病肆虐。在这种恶劣的条件下，许多人死于狱中。这座监狱关押过形形色色的人，包括美国和英国士兵、普通公民以及奴隶。
大楼的一楼和二楼设有博物馆，专门展示交易所大楼的其他用途。
费用：这座历史悠久的建筑成人门票仅需12美元。只需支付少量费用，即可参加底层导览游，从导游那里了解很多信息。
