Delaware Legislative Hall — Attraction in Dover

One of the smaller state capitols I have been to, but it was still a great experience to tour it. A great chance to learn a little more about Delaware state history. The chambers were simpler, but had some unique features. For instance, you could see how they moved the desks around, (which was somewhat unique from the other state capitols I've been). The paintings were a nice touch to the state capitol as well. The staff here was helpful and helped me to take pictures or explain things when asked. They had useful papers for explaining the pieces of the capitol. If going on a holiday, it might be worth calling ahead before visiting though. I tried visiting on Labor day and turned out it was closed, (was not listed that way on their website). But was able to confirm by calling in.

Even with the rain at the end of the event, it was still a good day. We were glad we went and will likely go...

charming little building. if you are into visiting state capitols like myself, do not expect a grandiose rotunda like most newer ones have -- as there is no rotunda to speak of. the allure of this building is the history, and as our nation's first state, there is no shortage of that here. the grounds are beautiful and it's worth doing a lap around the exterior to check out all the monuments & memorials surrounding the capitol. I think the smaller size of the building suits the state perfectly. the staff here were wonderful. did the self guided tour, but guided tours are given every 30-45 mins for free year-round. worth your time if you...
