The Old Stone Jail Museum in the village of Palmyra is also worth a visit. The house served as a tavern, and the county's original courthouse and jail were located on the property. Although easy to find on route 15, the house is set almost a half mile back on 35 private acres, with woods, a fishing pond, and open pastures. A short hike lends access to the Rivanna River. There is a relaxed and informal atmosphere for the weary traveler.
