Here's another building at the Wood County Historical Museum in Bowling Green, Ohio. It's the Lunatic House from 1885. It was used for the "insane patients" at the Wood County Infirmary. It had two floors, 26 x 40 feet, with the bottom floor divided into cells, and the upper floor used as a hospital. It cost $1,700 to build. I'm glad I was never made to stay there.
