Tennessee State Capitol

Perched atop Nashville’s highest hill, the Tennessee State Capitol is a striking example of Greek Revival architecture, designed by the celebrated architect William Strickland. Modeled after an Ionic Greek temple, the building stands out as one of the few state capitols without a dome. Inside, visitors can explore the opulent interiors, which feature intricate murals, frescoes, and chandeliers adorning the hallways. Tours are available on weekdays, offering a glimpse into the rich history and architectural grandeur of this iconic landmark.
