Mississippi State Capitol 400 High Street, Jackson, MS 39201

"Excelent plant tour with Mr. Steve. A lot information regarding the history and legacy under the roof."

"I ended up with a private tour. Very nice experience with a well-spoken docent. Of course it's free and well worth the time."

"Being from Louisville, it's crazy that I just visited this place last week! However, I must say that I'm thoroughly impressed with my home state's capitol! It's undoubtedly beautiful and represents our state well. The tour guide was very informative and gave us some fun facts along our journey. I highly recommend the Mississippi Capitol for field trips. Perhaps you can even contact your representative to sit in on a congressional session!"

"As a resident of MS and tour guide at State Capitol, I am very proud of how it represents us. It was designed by Theodore Link in 1901. The photos were taken during the Book Festival so definitely a much larger crowd than normal. What I like most is the fact that it has 10 different types of marble; foreign and domestic. There are also 4,750 original light fixtures. It’s built on Beaux-Art Style which was popular from 1890-1920. Visitors who are touring all state capitols have stated that MS has one of the nicest. There is so much history under one roof and it’s simply beautiful. I highly recommend visiting if in the area or passing through!"

"My son and I visited the Mississippi State Capitol during a recent road trip and were very impressed with how lovely and well-maintained the building is. The people of Mississippi can be justifiably proud of this magnificent public building. The employees of the Capitol were extremely welcoming and pleasant and were kind enough to answer our questions about the history of the building. The stone work in the building was most impressive and truly beautiful!"
