Viewing History of the Rice County Court House and Jail (1910).

History of the Rice County Court House and Jail (1910).

Rice County was formed March 7, 1853. Twenty years later, county commissioners purchased land in Faribault, the county seat, for a courthouse. That building was completed in 1874. The county jail was built in 1873, remodeled in 1890, and condemned in 1910. A new jail was built shortly thereafter.

This history of the Rice County courthouse and jail appeared in the first volume of a joint history of Rice and Steele Counties published in 1910.
