Jefferson City

Description: Jefferson City is the capital of Missouri and so the State Capitol is located here. The building was constructed in 1917 and is the third State Capitol in Jefferson City. The two previous buildings were destroyed by fire. 

The building has a few structural features. It has a 240ft high dome and numerous 49ft high columns on both the north and south sides. The State Capitol is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Our rating: We quite enjoyed the State Capitol during our visit in June 2017. We always try to visit the State Capitol when we have the opportunity. You can always learn something interesting about the respective state and American history. Unfortunately, we didn't have time for an extensive visit here, but we liked what we saw. Who is in the area, should have a look.
