The Pennsylvania State Capitol in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA, is a magnificent example of Beaux-Arts architecture, designed by architect Joseph Huston and completed in 1906. This iconic building houses the legislative chambers of the Pennsylvania General Assembly, the offices of the Governor, and the chambers of the Supreme and Superior Courts. The Capitol's most striking feature is its 272-foot dome, inspired by St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, which dominates the skyline.
