Alaska State Capitol, Government building in downtown Juneau, United States

The Alaska State Capitol occupies a six-story structure with limestone facade and marble columns from Prince of Wales Island in central Juneau.

The Federal and Territorial Building, completed in 1931, transitioned to state government use when Alaska achieved statehood in 1959.

The building contains murals depicting land and sea harvests, along with busts of Elizabeth Peratrovich and early Alaskan senators Ernest Gruening and Bob Bartlett.

Visitors can take guided tours through legislative chambers, committee rooms, and public spaces during regular business hours throughout the year.

This state capitol lacks the traditional dome design, featuring instead an Art Deco architectural style with black birch doors carved with Alaskan industry motifs.
