Pennsylvania State Capitol, Harrisburg

This State Capitol is located in downtown Harrisburg, and it’s the seat of the government in this state. It’s home to the House of Representatives, Senate, the superior and supreme courts of the state, but also the office of the governor.

This is one of the most beautiful state capitol buildings in the US it was built between 1902 and 1906 and was designed by Joseph Miller Huston in 1902.

While the design chosen by Miller was Beaux-Art, it was actually decorated in the Renaissance style. The building has several statues, sculptures, murals, and stained glass windows. And for this reason, the building is also known as the ‘Palace of Art.’

Due to its remarkable yet unique design, the Pennsylvania State Capitol was listed in the National Register of Historic Places back in 1977.
