The grey bluestone cell blocks stand three tiers high, just as they were. This is where the outlaw Ned Kelly was hanged in 1880. Cells hold the stories of the people locked inside, along with death masks and execution gear. By day you walk it with an audio guide, and on set dates there are night tours.
