The U.S. Capitol Building is among the most architecturally impressive and symbolically important buildings in the world.

Begun in 1793, the U.S. Capitol has been built, burnt, rebuilt, extended and restored; today, it stands as a monument not only to its builders but also to the American people and their government.
