Visiting the Texas State Capitol Complex
The Texas Capitol Appeals to History Buffs and Political Junkies Alike
Like the national capitol, the Texas state capitol was once considered the “people’s house.” It used to be open almost all the time, with limited security. Security has been tightened in recent years, but the Texas state capitol still welcomes the public year-round. The easiest way to view the building is to pick up a brochure on the first floor and take a self-guided tour.
Guided Tours
However, you’ll get more out of the visit with the help of a knowledgeable tour guide. Guided tours start every 15 minutes in the south foyer and last about 40 minutes. Normal business hours are Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; Saturday 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.; and Sunday noon to 3:30 p.m. A typical tour covers the building’s architecture, state history and fun facts about the Texas Legislature.
The guided tour will help you spot some of the less obvious details of the building, such as door hinges with “Texas Capitol” engraved into them. Similar attention to detail can be seen in the doorknobs and in the floor tiles. For those interested in the “wow factor,” there are also sweeping staircases and glittery chandeliers.
On weekdays, a special Women in Texas History tour is offered at 11:15 a.m., and a Heroes of the Texas Revolution tour begins at 2:15 p.m. Nature buffs may also want to pick up the Trail of Trees brochure. It highlights the history of the capitol’s well-manicured grounds, with a particular focus on the majestic oak, southern magnolia and bald cypress trees. In total, there are 25 different tree species on the capitol grounds.
Capitol Visitors Center
Located at 112 East 11th Street, the Capitol Visitors Center houses exhibits related to the history of the capitol and the state as a whole. Larger group tours of the capitol, such as school field trips, can also be arranged here.
The Capitol Visitors Parking Garage is located at 1201 San Jacinto Boulevard. You can enter from East 12th Street or East 13th Street. The first two hours are free, and each additional half hour costs $1; the maximum charge is $12. Keep in mind that you'll be exiting onto San Jacinto Boulevard, which is a one-way street heading south.
Brief History and Fun Facts About the Texas State Capitol
· The design of the capitol building was decided via a nationwide competition. Architect Elijah E. Myers, who also designed the capitols in Colorado and Michigan, won the competition. The contractors on the project were granted 3 million acres of land, which later became the famous XIT ranch in the Panhandle.
· Controversy haunted the building’s construction from the beginning. The pink granite was donated by the owners of a quarry in Marble Falls. However, to save money, the state decided to use convicts to quarry the notoriously hard rock. When local granite cutters boycotted the project due to the use of convict labor, the state brought in workers from Scotland to replace them.
· In 1993, a sprawling underground capitol extension opened. Essentially, the capitol outgrew its above-ground space and had to start building downward. The 600,000-square-foot four-level structure includes offices for Senators and House Representatives, parking, a bookstore, cafeteria and auditorium. The design features skylights that let in a remarkable amount of natural light.
· Texas’ first permanent capitol was completed in 1853, but the Greek Revival building burned to the ground in 1881.
· In the south foyer, life-sized statues of Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin stand guard over the entryway. A huge painting in the foyer by William Henry Huddle depicts a major turning point in Texas History: the surrender of Mexican General Santa Anna. Tiles in the terrazzo floor depict 12 major battles fought in Texas.
· One of the oldest outdoor exhibits is the Heroes of the Alamo, built in 1891. The gazebo-shaped structure displays battle scenes. The names of the people who fought and died at the Alamo are engraved into the granite. The Alamo itself is also a worthwhile stop if you’re in the region for several days.
· Try clapping your hands while standing under the capitol rotunda and listen as the sound echoes throughout the massive structure.
· In the senate chamber, many of the original desks, made of walnut, are still in use. They’ve been modified slightly to accommodate modern technology.
· In a sign of how important agriculture was to the state in its early days, an Agricultural Museum was created within the capitol soon after the building was completed. In addition to displaying information about some of the state’s early food crops, the room is chock full of antiques from the 1800s and early 1900s.

The Texas State Capitol
One of the benefits of visiting Austin, the capital city of Texas, is touring the impressive capitol building at 1800 Congress Avenue. It may look familiar – the architect, Elijah E. Meyers, modeled it after the capitol building in Washington D.C., However, because it’s located in Texas, it is 14 feet taller than the Federal Capitol Building, and after an underground extension was completed in the mid 1990s, surpassed the federal building in square footage as well.
The importance and the prominence of the Capitol Building for the city of Austin cannot be overstated enough, and the city has taken care to preserve the views of the capitol from around the city. Until the 1960s, no building was permitted to be taller than the capitol building. But when the University of Texas built the 26-story Westgate Tower, controversy sparked, creating what is now know as “Capitol View Corridors.” All in all, there are now 39 Capitol View Corridors in the city, which block the development of buildings that would impede the view of the capitol from various points in the city.
The main entrance to the Texas capitol building is located on the south side of the structure, famously approached via Congress Avenue, whose buildings frame the capitol, providing an iconic, treasured promenade to the entrance. Above the doors at the main entrance, there are six seals located on the building, representing the six independent countries that which have laid claim to Texas over the centuries. To enter, you’ll go through a short security. On the other side of security, is the South Foyer, where all tours depart.
The capitol has a myriad of knowledgeable tour guides who are happy to answer questions while they direct you through the various places around the building or grounds. The tours vary in subject matter, ranging from the basic capitol tour, which explores the building’s rooms and architectural highlights, as well as tours which focus on Women in Texas History, Heroes of the Texas Revolution, and there are a variety of seasonal tours throughout the year: an African American Trailblazers Tour in February, a Hispanic Heritage Tour in September, a Rest in Peace Tour in October which explores the ghost stories of the capitol, a Texas Veterans Tour in November, and a Holiday Capitol Tour in December, which explores the different holiday traditions from a variety of ethnic cultures in Texas. Tours generally depart every half hour, but on busy days are known to depart every quarter hour, and all tours are free.
If you’d rather explore at your own pace, the South Foyer also provides two different maps: the capitol building map, and the capitol grounds map. Each map locates and describes points of interest for their respective area, which range from war and veteran memorials, to sculptures and portraits of important people from Texas’ colorful history, to the legislative rooms in the building. As you depart, make sure you visit the Capitol Gift Shop, which has two locations. There is one in the downstairs extension, and one in the Capitol Visitor’s Center, located on the southeast side of the building. There you can find a variety of unique Texas-themed gifts ranging from salsas to belt buckles, coffee mugs, framed works of art, and of course, the official Capitol Christmas ornament, which designs a new style each year.

We made stops at the beautiful Capital building, and at LBJ’s Library where Steven took half of our group, while Joe took the other half for an educational look at amazing places. They made for a wonderful experience in a crazy, weird city.

Visit Texas State Capitol
The Texas State Capitol, the fourth building to serve as the seat of Texas government, is situated in Austin. This magnificent building was built from 1882-88 under the direction of Lindsay Walker. It was opened to the public on San Jacinto Day, April 21, 1888. Designed by Elijah E. Myers, the Texas State Capitol building is the largest of all the State Capitol buildings. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in the year 1970 and designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1986. The Building is known for its Renaissance Revival style architecture. In fact, it is a unique example of late 19th-century public architecture, characterized by round arches, classical orders, and asymmetrical composition.
The structural exterior of the State Capitol Building is made of ‘Texas Pink Granite’, which is now marketed with the name “sunset red” granite. The portraits of every past Texas Governor are displayed within the rotunda, which also serves as a ‘whispering gallery’. The lobby of the building features sculptures by Stephen F. Austin and Elisabet Ney of Sam Houston. The Texas State Capitol is nearly 15 ft (4.5 m) higher than the National Capitol and has more floor space than any other Capitol building. A major attraction on the grounds of the Capitol is the granite monument of the Ten Commandments, which became the center of a 2005 U.S. Supreme Court case, Van Orden v. Perry.
The Texas State Capitol Building sits on the highest point of the City of Austin. It offers a breathtaking view towards the Colorado River from its southern façade and anchors the northern periphery of the downtown commercial district. The main campus of The University of Texas at Austin has located just four blocks to the north. The Texas State Capitol Complex is in the heart of downtown Austin and has become a popular tourist attraction in the city. The main features of the Complex include the Capitol, the Capitol Extension, the Capitol Visitors Center, Visitor Parking facilities, and the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum. The entire complex is managed by the State Preservation Board, which provides various amenities and facilities that both employees and visitors, whether on state business, observing the legislative process, visiting from the University of Texas campus, strolling the grounds, learning about Texas history, buying a unique gift, or simply enjoying the magnificent architecture of the complex buildings.

Texas Capitol (History + Fascinating Facts)
Share the post "Texas Capitol (History + Fascinating Facts)"
When visiting Texas, it’s a must to visit the Texas State Capitol. It is a National Historic Landmark and well known to be one of the U.S.A’s most eminent State Capitols. It is the seat of the government in Texas, and here you will find the chambers and offices of the Texas Legislature.
Designed by E.E. Myers, the Texas State Capitol building is in Austin, Texas. The cornerstone of the red granite building was laid in 1885 and contained a zinc box with mementos. The official dedication of the Texas Capitol was on May 16, 1888, and attended by Senator Temple Houston.

Work on the Texas State Capitol building began in 1882 after a design by architect Elijah E. Myers. While work was completed by 1888, a new underground extension was added by 1993. It is the sixth-tallest of the State Capitol buildings, reaching 302.64 feet.
The current Texas Capitol replaced the 1853 Capitol building, which was destroyed by fire and is actually the fourth Capitol building in Austin. Although it was initially intended to be built of limestone, it was eventually constructed from the local red granite, which was given by the owners of Granite Mountain in Burnet County.
- Location : Austin, Texas, located in the downtown area
- County : Travis County
- Land Area : 51.4 acres
- Height : 302.64 feet
- Built : 1885
- Architect : Elijah E. Myers
- Architectural Style : Renaissance Revival Design, modeled after Washington Capitol
- Total cost : $3,744,630.60
Even before a fire destroyed the Texas capitol building in 1881, the Texas government had set aside lands and funds to begin the construction of a new building. They used a competition to select an architect, and eleven different designs were entered into the Texas Capitol competition.
- The competition was won by an architect from Detroit, Elijah E. Myers
- Myers entered the competition under a pseudonym and is the only architect to have designed three Capitol buildings
- The original design was meant to be constructed from limestone, but the local limestone was unsuitable due to iron particles
- The design was simplified, allowing the engineers to use Texas red granite for Granite Mountain
- The quarrying was done by convicts and later by imported Scottish granite cutters.
The construction of the Capitol was plagued by difficulties. Problems occurred both in the early stages and after the work was completed. Specific parts of the original Capitol have been moved to preserve them and placed on display to the public.
- Using Scottish granite cutters violated the Contract Labor Act and sparked a boycott.
- Although completed in 1888, the copper roof leaked, and the Capitol Board refused to accept it.
- The east wing was damaged by a fire in 1983, and the State Preservation Board was created to restore it.
- The original iron and zinc Goddess of Liberty, which graced the top of the building, was removed after nearly a hundred years.
- A new goddess was cast from molds made from the original, and this new aluminum statue was placed on the dome in 1986.

The Most Beautiful Building In Every US State
Posted: January 2, 2024 | Last updated: January 2, 2024
Awe-inspiring architecture
From significant government buildings to historic residences and even train stations, this diverse collection of constructions have been deemed the most beautiful in the US. Thanks to research compiled by Angi based on TripAdvisor rankings, we take a look at the most attractive building in every state.
Click or scroll through to see if your favorite made the list...
Alabama: Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Mobile
Alaska: St Michael's Russian Orthodox Cathedral, Sitka
Arizona: Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona
Blending into the surrounding red rocks, this chapel was built in 1956 by visionary architect and sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude. It was designed to reflect the spiritual essence of the Sedona landscape.

Samsung gets $6.4 billion to build massive semiconductor plants in central Texas
Updated April 15, 2024 at 12:02 PM ET
The Biden administration is giving Samsung $6.4 billion to help build massive new semiconductor chip plants in central Texas, the latest in a series of investments that the government hopes will transform the U.S. manufacturing sector.
Samsung itself is expected to invest $40 billion in the project, which will build new plants in Taylor , Texas, which is northeast of Austin, and expand the company's existing plant in Austin. The tiny chips will be used in technology that's needed for everything from artificial intelligence, to medical devices like pacemakers.
President Biden visited the company's Pyeongtaek campus in South Korea two years ago. The new Texas plants will include facilities dedicated to research and development, and will have the ability to not only manufacture the chips, but package them, too. Many chips that are made in the U.S. still have to get sent to Taiwan to get packaged.
"We're saying for the first time ever, Samsung can conduct in the United States of America core research and development, support the future and manufacturing at scale and advanced packaging all in Texas," Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo told reporters on a conference call.
She described the facilities Samsung is building as "massive" — the first one will be the size of 11 football fields.
The White House estimated that the new plants will create 17,000 construction jobs and more than 4,500 manufacturing jobs . But it will take until the end of the decade for all the plants to be fully functional.
Officials also said it will make an impact on national security, because the investments including commitments from Samsung to manufacture semiconductor chips directly for the U.S. Department of Defense.
"It will boost our production capacity for chips in critical U.S. industries, including aerospace, defense and autos. And in doing so, will bolster our national security," Lael Brainard, Biden's top economic adviser, told reporters.
Officials said the investment, which comes from the CHIPS and Science Act President Biden signed into law in 2022, is their final major announcement on Biden's plans to bring semiconductor manufacturing back to the United States.
Earlier this year, Biden announced grants to Taiwanese company TSMC for a large manufacturing project in Arizona, and U.S. company Intel for plants in Arizona, Ohio, New Mexico and Oregon.
