Built in 1864 this was the venue for several of the Kelly family trials. The cell in which Ned Kelly was once held is still in its original state.

Ned Kelly appeared here several times between 1868 and 1877.

Ned's mother, was also charged here with Furious Fiding in a Public place after celebtrating her success with a child maintenance suit in the same court.

Whilst access to the Courthouse is limited the holding cell is usually open.
