Can we tour the Jail and Sheriff's Office?

Yes, here is the current jail tour schedule and information on registering for those tours.  If none of those times work, individuals and groups may call the sheriff's office at 641-228-1821 to schedule a tour.  There are pictures on Floyd County's website and town hall meetings will be hosted throughout the county to help answer your questions.
