The Folsom Prison itself currently holds approximately 4,200 inmates. Some of its more famous inmates have included Eric Menendez and Rick James... although contrary to popular belief, Johnny Cash was never a resident of the prison. Though Folsom Prison is what made the city famous, it's barely an afterthought to residents these days. The occasional lunch whistle is a daily reminder that a prison still stands in city limits; though it's notable that the whistle doesn't even serve a purpose anymore; it is blown at lunchtime every day out of tradition.
Constructed in 1919 in the style of 18th Century Italian buildings as a silent film theatre, the Sutter Creek Theatre today is a complete multipurpose entertainment center that hosts events year-round. Award winning musi... Sutter Creek Theatre
