| One block south
of the courthouse is the former county jail. The building, used as
the county jail until 1941, is the cornerstone of the museum area
where contributors and members have several historic structures and
other relics of Palo Pinto's past. Noteworthy are the bell and a wonderful
hitching post of stone and iron that is perfect in its utilitarian
design. See Palo
