| The Capitol. Raleigh is
the State Capital. After the original Capitol Building burned down
in 1831, it was finally replaced about 1840 with the structure that you
see today located on Union Square. Of course the legislature does
not use it anymore though the governor does keep his office there.
It is surrounded by statues and memorials from past wars and
heroes. It is truly a beautiful and significant building.
