Twenty-six of the gothic niches that grace the exterior are filled with statuary of
famous Connecticut citizens. The interior has been restored and has much to offer,
including intricate stenciling and marble floors. Visitors will want to locate the
Genius of Connecticut, the Nathan Hale statue, and the Charter Oak Chair to
learn the unique history of each. 860-240-0222 Capitol Building Hours: Map to the Capitol Building in Hartford Have you been to this capitol before? What did you think?
Share your comments with us! I really enjoyed visiting the city of Hartford, Connecticut and
it's beautiful capitol building on JUNE 13th. I love the gothic look that it
presents and was able to see the Gov as she entered the building! her staff
presented us with nice pen sets!!! -ttwilliams01@hotmail.com
