点评:We are three senior women who take occasional road trips. We do extensive research and had a full itinerary on our May, 2025 trip to northern and central Indiana. We were intrigued by the idea of this Rotary Jail and added it to our list of things to see and do.
We came away astounded at the engineering, design, efficiency and ultimate downfall of this concept.
You MUST visit when you are in the area. There were only 18 of these Rotary Jails built, only three remain and this is the only one that is still operational IN THE WORLD! Check days and times because it is not open every day - but we really encourage everyone to plan their trip within Indiana to include this gem!
I am not a museum person. Give me 20 minutes and nearly any museum in the world and I will have had enough. But every so often I come across something that catches my attention and this was one of those places.
Their website can explain better than I can. What I can do is, once again, strongly encourage everyone who lives or visits nearby to visit.
翻译:我们三位年长的女士偶尔会自驾游。我们做了大量的研究,并制定了完整的行程,计划于2025年5月前往印第安纳州北部和中部。我们对这座扶轮社监狱的想法很感兴趣,并把它列入了我们的观光和活动清单。
我们最终对这个概念的工程、设计、效率以及最终的失败感到震惊。
如果您到该地区,一定要去参观。扶轮社监狱只建造了18座,现在只剩下3座,而这座是世界上唯一仍在运营的!请务必查看开放日期和时间,因为它并非每天都开放——但我们真的鼓励每个人都计划在印第安纳州境内旅行,把这处瑰宝纳入其中!
我不太喜欢博物馆。给我20分钟,几乎参观世界上任何一家博物馆,我都会觉得足够了。但偶尔我会遇到一些吸引我注意的地方,而这里就是其中之一。
他们的网站解释得比我更清楚。我能做的是,再次强烈鼓励住在附近或来附近的所有人前来参观。
