With its majestic architecture and historical significance, it serves as the heart of American democracy.

Holds countless stories within its walls. From important legislative decisions to monumental events shaping our nation's destiny, this government building has witnessed it all. Did you know that Washington DC was not always home to the Capitol? In 1810, the original Capitol building stood proudly before being relocated to where it now resides.
