In 1864, the Idaho Territorial Legislative Assembly designated the jails in Lewiston and Idaho City as "temporary territorial prisons." In 1866, the two were consolidated by designating the Boise County Jail as the territorial prison, and all prisoners were transferred there. A new prison building just out of Boise was completed for the Territory in 1872, which became the State Prison, when Idaho became a state in 1890.
