Old Stone Jail

This remarkable historical building is being reborn! After much delay, the restoration of the Cambria County Old Stone Jail is finalizing preparations for the restoration of this national registered historical building. This will present many opportunities, to the Borough of Ebensburg and the surrounding communities of Cambria County, by providing a unique, interesting, and historical site to visit. Upon repair and restoration, the building will become a muli-use property. There will be areas for attractions such as prison and haunted tours, hosting of events, banquet and meeting rooms, office and retail spaces, and much more.
