Tennessee State Capitol, State Capitol building in Nashville, United States
The Tennessee State Capitol features limestone walls, symmetrical design, and a clock tower rising 95 feet above the central structure.
The building, constructed between 1845 and 1859, represents architect William Strickland's final work, who remains entombed within its walls.
The Capitol grounds display monuments of three United States presidents, including Andrew Jackson, Andrew Johnson, and James K. Polk.
The Tennessee General Assembly holds regular legislative sessions in the building, which also contains the governor's executive offices.
Among eleven state capitols in the United States without a dome, this Greek Revival structure stands on the highest hill in downtown Nashville.
