Lonely Planet review

The California State Capitol is Sacramento's most recognizable structure. Built in the late 19th century, it underwent major reconstruction in the 1970s. Rooms on the ground floor, called the Capitol Museum, contain furniture, portraits, photographs and documents from various periods of California history.

The free tours leave hourly from the tourist information office in the basement where you'll also find great murals, a free video display and a bookstore.
