Bruin's Slave Jail, located in Alexandria, Virginia, was a two-story brick building where slave trader Joseph Bruin imprisoned enslaved individuals. Operating under the company name Bruin and Hill, they transported captured Africans to slave markets in the Southern United States.
Confiscated during the American Civil War, the property was used as the Fairfax County Courthouse until 1865. Today, all that remains of the compound is the two-story brick structure that once housed the enslaved people.
