The old gaol is now fully restored and the ghosts of the unfortunates who inhabited it can be visited daily. Displays in the Great Hall, warders' quarters and cells illustrate the way things were in past, less privileged, times. Also available are night tours of the Gaol.
New Year 2009 will see the Albany Historical Society's long held ambition to open the old P&O Albany Co-operative Store as a Display Storage Museum. The Society for many years has used this building as a repository for its artefacts and objects that have not been on public display within its other Museums.
Whilst this building appears rather unattractive from the outside due to the 1960s addition of brick wings and asbestos kitchen area, the core building however remains perfectly intact and is the only example of this type of architecture in Albany.
