The Knox County Correctional Facility is connected to the county's law enforcement building, which is located approximately one mile from the county courthouse. The structure was completed in November 1991. The jail portion of the building was approved by the State Department of Corrections to hold 49 long-term prisoners, nine 48-hour prisoners, and two 4-hour prisoners, for a total capacity of 60. However, the facility was not certified to house juvenile inmates and was required to separate female prisoners from the male population.

The Knox County Correctional Facility has a very unique role within the State of Maine. Knox County is the only county that has three state prisons located within the county, which adds a considerable amount of responsibilities to the correctional facility. The county has its owns Transport Teams, which at times are extremely busy because they are responsible for all transports to the Courts. Juveniles are transported to appropriate holding facilities and are only at the Knox County Correctional Facility for processing and for short-term stays.
