Informations supplémentaires

Photograph by David Coleman. The United States Capitol stands as the seat of the legislative branch of the federal government and serves as the meeting place for both chambers of Congress. Located on Capitol Hill at the eastern end of the National Mall in Washington DC, this neoclassical building represents the architectural and symbolic heart of American democracy. The current structure began construction in 1793 when George Washington laid the cornerstone, designed initially by William Thornton and later modified by Benjamin Henry Latrobe and Charles Bulfinch. The building's most recognizable feature is its cast-iron dome, completed in 1866 and topped by the 19.5-foot bronze Statue of Freedom sculpted by Thomas Crawford. The Capitol has undergone numerous expansions since its original construction, including the addition of the current House and Senate wings in the 1850s and 1860s. The building encompasses approximately 1.5 million square feet of floor space and contains 540 rooms. Beyond its legislative functions, the Capitol serves as a museum of American art and history, housing the National Statuary Hall Collection and numerous paintings, sculptures, and murals depicting significant moments in American history. The Capitol complex includes not only the main building but also the Capitol Visitor Center, Library of Congress buildings, and Supreme Court, forming the governmental heart of the nation.
