Virginia State Capitol

Official Travel Stamp Decal

The House of Burgess formed in 1619 and is known today as the continent’s oldest elected legislative body and the current General Assembly of the Commonwealth. They first met in this Neoclassical National Historic Landmark in 1788 and continue to report to work on the grounds of Capitol Square. The building was designed by President Thomas Jefferson and inspired by a Roman temple in France.
