The Winneshiek County IA Jail is a medium-security detention center located at 400 Claiborne Dr Decorah, IA which is operated locally by the Winneshiek County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Winneshiek County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Decorah Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.
The mission of the Winneshiek County Jail is to provide safe, secure and constitutional detention of both sentenced and pre-trial detainees placed in the facility by the courts. The jail is a 40-bed facility and incarcerated inmates awaiting trial and serving time for state, county and municipal offenses. Additionally, the jail houses overflow inmates for other jurisdictions. The jail currently employs 11 full-time jailers.

HOW TO GET PROPERTY RELEASED
If an inmate has been transported to prison, the inmate will have the opportunity to have their property picked up by a designated person. This will only occur after the inmate has left our facility.
If the inmate has left our facility, for a placement elsewhere ie, another jail, their property will go with them at time of transfer.
An inmate may request to have personal property released to a specified person that is not incarcerated.
Winneshiek County IA Jail publishes the names of their inmates currently in their facility in Iowa. Your search should start with this locator first to see if your loved one is there.
The second box is the InmateAid Inmate Search. This database of inmates is user-generated content for the purpose of accessing and utilizing any or all of the InmateAid services. If you need our assistance creating your own inmate profile to keep in touch, email us at aid@inmateaid.com and we will assist you in locating your inmate.
As a last resort, you might have to pay for that information if we do not have it. The Arrest Record Search will cost you a small amount, but their data is the freshest available and for that reason they charge to access it.
