This was an unplanned filler stop for us on our college visit road trip... what a pleasant surprise for me, my wife and teenage son. This is an awesome Capitol building with some great history and amazing architecture!!!
We planned to spend 30 min here and ended up spending 4 hrs here looking at ALL levels of this facility. There is a really nice employee that runs the Capitol dome tours taking visitors up into the top of the dome and onto the dome observation deck at the very top outside. Awesome views and cool experience. Quite a few steps to get there and very narrow passage ways and narrow spiral staircase so not for everyone if you are Leary is heights or claustrophobic etc.
Great architecture, paintings, building design, materials and photographs of Constructuon etc .
Highly recommend to anyone interested in history or solid buildings design etc
Great stop for our family.

Fun photo op and brief rest stop.
Likely a really cool Cole photo stop in its day when the paint was fresh... could use a repaint and the silo would be a great place for wall / rock climbing.
Still fun as is and worth the stop.

Cool place, great views, snow even towards the end of May, lake looks like a great place to swim and fish, nice campsites.
Road is a bit steep and winding on the way up and down so be careful.
