There isn't information about this building, besides it was the local jail, where detainees would stay before the interview with the judge. I have no dates, but considering regional history and the surroundings, I would say the jail was active during the 19th Century, perhaps early 20th Century. But then, this is a wild guess.

The village is presently mostly deserted, although some of the houses are still inhabited.
