The Maryland State House in Annapolis, Maryland, is the oldest state capitol in continuous legislative use, dating back to 1772. It is notable for its large wooden dome, which was completed in 1797 without the use of nails. The building served as the temporary capital of the United States from 1783 to 1784, during which time the Treaty of Paris was ratified, formally ending the American Revolutionary War. The State House remains the seat of the Maryland General Assembly and houses the offices of the Governor and the Lieutenant Governor.
