The former Franklin County Jail is a historic building at 3rd and River Streets in Ozark, Arkansas. It is a two-story masonry structure, built out of native sandstone. It is roughly cubic in shape, with a flat roof obscured by a crenellated parapet, and its entrance set in a Romanesque arch. It was built in 1914, and has been rehabilitated to house professional offices.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
