Prominently featured on the famous “Freedom Trail,” visitors will enjoy discovering
“what's under the golden dome” as they walk through the marbled Memorial Hall,
passing statues and paintings on the way to the legislative chambers, where they
will spot the “sacred cod.” Crowning the exterior of the dome is a pinecone,
symbolizing the importance of wood and the lumber industry to the early economy
of New England. 617-727-3676 Free tours of the capitol Monday - Friday 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. Closed all major holidays. Map to the Capitol Building in Boston Have you been to this capitol before? What did you think?
