The '''Spanish jail''' or '''gaol''', known in Spanish as the '''''calabozo''''' ("dungeon") and corrupted in English to '''calaboose''', was constructed during Pensacola's [[second Spanish period]] at the southwest corner of [[Alcaniz Street|Alcaniz]] and [[Intendencia Street]]s. Despite conditions that were described as "deplorable" by federal surveyors who inventoried the Spanish properties after the [[1821]] transfer to the United States, it remained the primary detention facility for both Pensacola and [[Escambia County]] until [[1875]], when a [[Old Escambia County Jail|new county jail]] was constructed on [[Jefferson Street]] at [[Main Street|Main]].

The Spanish jail was a two-story brick structure, about 18 feet by 36 feet, with two rooms on each floor. Prisoners were held on the first floor, while the jailer and his family stayed on the second. A small wooden building on the property served as a kitchen. It was demolished in {{date needed}}.
