Additional Details:
Ideally situated atop a bluff overlooking the Missouri River, this eye-catching domed structure was erected in the period of 1912-17. It houses the Governor's Office, General Assembly, and many departments of Missouri's State Government. Worthy of special mention is the bronze front door, 13' by 18' in size, reputed as the widest cast since the Roman Era, and the grand stairway, 30' wide, the widest in the world. Free tours are conducted through the Capitol every hour, seven days a week
