Free tours daily, including Sundays, of the Virginia State Capitol. Classic architecture—designed by Thomas Jefferson—and interesting history.
Did you know that the state capitol was designed by Thomas Jefferson in 1785? It was modeled the Capitol after the Maison Carée, an ancient Roman temple in Nîmes, France.
