The Vermont State House in Montpelier is the beautiful gold-domed building where state leaders make laws. Its shiny golden dome can be seen sparkling from all around the small capital city.
It is famous for being one of the best-kept old capitol buildings in the whole country. Families enjoy free tours to see the grand rooms, statues, and the gleaming golden dome up close.
The dome is covered in real gold leaf that shines brightly in the sunlight. A statue of the goddess of farming stands proudly on top.
Friendly guides lead free tours through the historic halls and meeting rooms. You can sit where lawmakers sit and learn how laws are made.
Montpelier is the smallest state capital in the country, surrounded by green hills. In autumn the trees around the State House glow with bright colors.
