Gonzales City Police Jail Overview
Gonzales Police Department is located at 415 E. Cornerview Road in Gonzales and serves as the municipal police agency for the city. The official research record did not identify a separate public city jail roster, published bed capacity, or long-term visitation schedule for a Gonzales city jail. For that reason, the Gonzales City Police Jail label is treated as a police holding, arrest-processing, citation, court-date, and warrant-routing function rather than a standalone detention center with its own public inmate population.
That distinction is practical. A person arrested by Gonzales Police may be processed by the department, issued a citation, routed to Ascension Parish Court, held on a bench warrant, or transferred to the Ascension Parish Jail in Donaldsonville. If the person is in longer custody, the public search should shift to the Ascension Parish New World Inmate Inquiry. The jail roster includes a Booking Origin field, and sample public records show Gonzales Police Department as a possible booking origin.
The Gonzales Police data and payment page is the strongest official source for court payments, bench warrants, and related local instructions. The screenshot below shows the Gonzales warrant and court-payment source used for municipal routing details.

Because the official Gonzales Police material focuses on court and warrant handling rather than a live custody list, use it alongside the parish jail roster and the appropriate court contact when a person may have been moved or released.
Gonzales City Police Jail Capacity and Population
No official source located during research published a Gonzales City Police Jail bed capacity, daily population, visitation schedule, or separate city custody roster. The absence of those facts should not be filled with estimates. In Ascension Parish, the public local-custody count comes from the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office roster, which showed 542 in-custody records on June 16, 2026 when searched with In Custody selected and blank booking dates. That number belongs to the parish roster, not to a Gonzales city facility.
For users, this means the lookup question should be framed by time and custody status. Right after an incident, Gonzales Police may be the right agency for citation, warrant, or court-date information. Once the person is booked into parish custody, the Ascension Parish Jail roster becomes the public custody record. If the case later becomes a state prison sentence, the lookup moves again to Louisiana DPS&C and VINE.
How to Look Up a Gonzales Police Arrest
There is no official Gonzales city jail roster identified in the research. Start with the custody question: whether the person is still in local detention, resolving a citation, or dealing with a municipal bench warrant. The official Gonzales Police site includes court dates, Most Wanted navigation, anonymous tips, data and payment information, and department contact routes. For continued custody, the public roster is the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office system.
- Call Gonzales Police at (225) 647-7511 when the question is an immediate municipal arrest, citation, warrant officer issue, or police records route.
- Search the Ascension Parish New World Inmate Inquiry if the person may have been transferred to parish jail or held after booking.
- In the parish roster, search by name and review Booking Origin, charges, bond totals, prisoner type, and housing facility.
- For misdemeanors or traffic matters, follow Gonzales Police guidance to Ascension Parish Court at (225) 621-8504.
- For other court matters, use the 23rd Judicial District Court or clerk route, including the court number published by Gonzales Police for all other courts.
The parish jail roster may show booking photos, bond data, charge lines, and court grids, but APSO warns that roster data can change quickly and may not show final court status. A Gonzales arrest record is not the same thing as a final case disposition. The DA, court, and clerk records can change, amend, or resolve the charges after booking.
Gonzales City Police Jail Address and Contact
Gonzales Police Department is the municipal contact point for police matters in Gonzales. The department address is separate from the Ascension Parish Jail in Donaldsonville and separate from the sheriff's headquarters on South Irma Boulevard. Use the police department for Gonzales-specific court payment, warrant officer, and police contact questions. Use APSO for parish jail custody, booking sheets, and the New World roster.

Gonzales, LA 70737
(225) 647-7511
Municipal police contact for Gonzales arrests, citations, warrants, and court-routing questions.
When a Gonzales Police arrest leads to parish custody, Ascension Parish Jail is located at 2384 Lemanville Cut Off Road, Donaldsonville, LA 70346. APSO records and jail questions use (225) 473-8674, while the sheriff's jail card also publishes (225) 264-6709. Formal APSO public-records requests must be sent by USPS to the sheriff's Gonzales headquarters, Attn: Deputy Kyle Gautreau, Legal Affairs.
Visiting Someone After a Gonzales Police Arrest
No official Gonzales city jail visitation schedule was found. A municipal holding setting usually does not operate like the parish jail's unit-based visitation program, and the research did not locate a published public visiting schedule for short police processing. If the person is transferred to Ascension Parish Jail, then APSO visitation rules apply, including valid photo ID, one on-site visit per week, no electronic devices in the lobby or visitation areas, child-supervision rules, and the facility dress code.
| Situation | Where to Check | Visit Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Immediate Gonzales police processing | Gonzales Police Department | No separate public schedule found |
| Held in parish jail | Ascension Parish Jail roster and APSO Corrections | APSO unit schedule and one on-site visit per week |
| Sentenced to state custody | Louisiana DPS&C and VINE | State prison approved-list rules |
| Court-only citation or warrant issue | Ascension Parish Court or 23rd JDC | Court appearance, not jail visitation |
Before traveling to any building, confirm the current location. The police department, Ascension Parish Jail, Gonzales courthouse locations, and Donaldsonville courthouse locations serve different roles. The roster's housing field and the court's warrant status can prevent wasted trips.
Mail, Phone, and Money After a Gonzales Police Booking
Mail and commissary rules depend on whether the person is actually housed in Ascension Parish Jail. No separate Gonzales city commissary or mail program was found in official sources. If the person is only dealing with a citation, fine, warrant recall, or court date, jail mail and commissary are not the right channels. Gonzales Police publishes data and payment instructions for court-related matters, and Ascension Parish Court handles misdemeanor and traffic questions identified by the police department.
| Service | Provider / Detail |
|---|---|
| City Holding Mail | No separate public Gonzales city jail mail format found |
| Parish Jail Mail | Use APSO format only if the person is housed at Ascension Parish Jail |
| Money Deposit | APSO links to commissarydeposit.com for participating jail inmates |
| Court Payment | Follow Gonzales Police data and payment instructions for eligible municipal matters |
If a person appears on the Ascension Parish Jail roster, use the jail's listed name, booking information, and inmate identity fields before depositing money. If the issue is a warrant or court payment, do not send jail money as a substitute for resolving the court's order.
Booking, Warrants, and Court Routing in Gonzales
Gonzales Police guidance on bench warrants is unusually specific and should be read before assuming a jail booking will clear a court problem. The department explains that failure to appear for any court date can result in a bench warrant, a contempt of court fee, and possible driver's license suspension. The court is the only entity that can recall a warrant for just cause. If a new court date is needed, the person may have to appear in person at Gonzales City Police and see the warrant officer, then pay the contempt fee before being re-served with a new date.
The police page states that active warrants over 60 days may trigger driver's license suspension. It also directs misdemeanors and traffic matters to Ascension Parish Court at (225) 621-8504, while other courts may be reached at (225) 621-8500. Those court routes matter because a Gonzales arrest may begin with municipal enforcement, but bond, prosecution, and formal case status can belong to the parish court, district court, clerk, or DA depending on the charge.
When a Gonzales Police arrest becomes a parish jail booking, the New World profile may include the booking origin, charge description, bond type, bond amount, prisoner type, housing facility, and court grid. That jail profile helps identify the event, but it should not be treated as the final court record.
About Gonzales City Police Jail
Gonzales is one of the key local agency points in Ascension Parish's custody map. The parish jail is in Donaldsonville, the sheriff's main headquarters is in Gonzales, and the courts have Gonzales and Donaldsonville locations. Gonzales Police handles municipal police enforcement, local court-date and payment guidance, and bench-warrant routing. APSO handles the parish jail roster and longer local custody. Louisiana DPS&C handles sentenced state prisoners if a case later results in state commitment.
No official Gonzales Police app was located in the research. APSO does publish a sheriff app with inmate search and jail information features, but that is a sheriff tool rather than a Gonzales Police app. For a current parish custody search after a Gonzales arrest, the sheriff app and APSO roster may be useful. For a Gonzales bench warrant or payment question, the Gonzales Police data and payment page remains the better source.
Note: Confirm whether the person is at Gonzales Police, Ascension Parish Jail, court, or state custody before traveling or sending money.
