The Gurdon Jail is a historic city jail at West Joslyn and Front Streets in Gurdon, Arkansas. The single-story brick building, which contains two cells, was built in 1907 by the co-owner of the local brick company, M.D. Lowe. It is the only such structure in the city, and is one of a few surviving buildings from Gurdon's boom time as a lumber town in the early 20th century.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
