Description
The Capitol Building of the state of Iowa was built on a hill with the nearby Des Moines River flowing through the city of Des Moines. In 1886, construction was completed on this building. The beautiful gold leaf covered dome is 80 feet in diameter, and rises 275 feet above the Capitol grounds. The ornate interior consists of 12 types of wood all native to Iowa except mahogany, 29 different types of marble, 24 decorative fireplaces and 109 rooms, each with its own design. The Iowa Capitol is the only state capitol with 5 domes.
