The Fulton County Jail, also referred to as Rice Street, is a prison in Atlanta, Georgia. It was built to hold up to 1,125 prisoners in 1989 but now houses over 3,000. The US Department of Justice found in 2024 that conditions in the jail were unconstitutionally "inhumane, violent and hazardous".

Fulton County jail holds both people in pre-trial detention and people who have been convicted and sentenced. The prison is administered by Fulton County.
