Welcome to the Museum.
The Old Capitol remains one of the most recognizable symbols of the state of Iowa. In the many years since the cornerstone was laid, the building has served state legislatures, countless university uses, and has undergone multiple additions and renovations, even surviving a major fire in 2001. Now a National Historic Landmark, the Old Capitol Museum welcomes you to explore.
