California State Capitol Museum

Capitol Building, (10th and L streets), Sacramento, CA 95814

Operating continuously since the day the doors first opened in 1869, this building is where the State of California's legislature meets. By the late 1970s, the building was declared seismically unsafe and had become an eyesore.

The Legislature decided to stay in its traditional home and authorized a massive restoration. Today, from the intricate tile work on the front lobby floor to the lovingly etched filigreed detail in alcoves under the rotunda, the craftsmanship of a bygone era is evident. Docent guided tours are free.

 Open Hours: 8am-5pm Mon-Fri; 8:30am-5pm Sat-Sun
