Debtors prison of Accomack County is a historical landmark in Accomac, Virginia. It was built in the late 1700s and served as a place where people who could not pay their debts were sent to serve time until their debts were settled. The prison was in use until the mid-1800s.

The prison is a small brick building with a single room inside. The room is divided into two sections, one for men and one for women. There are no windows, and the only source of light and air is a small ventilation hole in the roof. The conditions inside the prison were harsh, with prisoners often suffering from disease and malnutrition.

The debtors prison played a significant role in the history of Accomack County, as it was a symbol of the economic struggles faced by many residents in the area during the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, the prison serves as a reminder of the hardships faced by those who were unable to pay their debts, and the importance of financial stability in our society.
