INTERIOR, OLD COURT HOUSE
Downtown St. Louis, Mo.
The dome was designed by architect Wm. Rumbold
and completed July 4, 1862. Rumbold obtained a
patent on the wrought and cast iron structure used
in the inner and outer dome. A similar method was
used to construct the dome of the United States
Capitol two years later. The murals on the inside of
the dome, which is 150 feet high, were the first
to be painted west of the Mississippi
