Secrets of the Ohio Statehouse

The seat of our state government is filled with beautiful touches and hidden bits of history that can be discovered by way of daily tours.

April 2020 BY Linda Feagler | Photo by David FitzSimmons

An architectural wonder that stands in sharp contrast to Columbus’ urban skyline, the Ohio Statehouse is a bastion of Greek Revival magnificence, representing the ancient origins of democracy in Athens. But the construction project, which officially commenced on July 4, 1839, was fraught with challenges. Five architects haggled over the design. Work ground to a halt when a cholera epidemic spread among prisoners from the Ohio Penitentiary assigned the hard-labor tasks of making bricks and cutting stone, and the legislature’s refusal to supply necessary funding delayed work from 1840 to 1848. When the Statehouse finally opened in 1861, it was the second-largest public building in the country next to the U.S. Capitol. Housed inside are the House and Senate chambers of the Ohio General Assembly, the office of the governor, the ceremonial offices of the state treasurer and auditor and public hearing rooms. There’s also a treasure trove of objects reflecting Ohio’s place in history, helping attract more than 60,000 tourists a year. “We go to museums because we get to see objects that are one of a kind, whether that’s a painting or an ancient artifact or a sculpture,” says Dayna Jalkanen, deputy director of museum and education at the Ohio Statehouse. “The great thing about the Statehouse is that it is a unique artifact in and of itself. It’s really a wonderful time capsule into what architecture looked like in the mid-1800s, and our state’s past.” Presidential Footsteps: Made of 4,957 hand-cut marble tiles that swirl out in a Fibonacci sequence from its circular center, the Statehouse Rotunda floor is a focal point of every tour. “It’s incredible it was created without calculators or computers or any of the modern-day technology we would have,” Jalkanen says. Abraham Lincoln walked across this very floor in 1861 on the way to give one of his early speeches as president-elect. Four years later, more than 50,000 Ohioans filed past the slain leader’s coffin as he lay in state here.  Great State Seals: A stained glass version of the seal from 1924 depicting sunrise over a bale of wheat and a bundle of 17 arrows representing Ohio’s entry into statehood hangs in the Museum Gallery on the ground floor. Painted by Cleveland native Rachel Keebler, the restored skylight in the center of the Rotunda dome depicts the version of the seal that was used until the statehouse was completed. Installed during a renovation project in the mid-1990s, it features a canal boat, a symbol of Ohio’s burgeoning commercial success. “The seal that was used from the 1920s through the 1960s represents the neoclassical design of the times,” Jalkanen says. “It’s only natural that the earlier one would include a canal boat, because it was so important to our business and transportation interests and so innovative at the time.”  Moment of Victory: Commissioned by the Ohio General Assembly in 1857, “Perry’s Victory” commemorates American commander Oliver Hazard Perry’s conquest against the British on Lake Erie during the War of 1812. It took artist William Powell seven years to finish the painting, which measures 18 feet wide by 14 feet high and hangs in the Rotunda. “You can really see the waves, the cannon smoke that shrouded the ships and the wind waving through Perry’s hair,” Jalkanen says. “You really get a sense of what it must have sounded like, felt like and smelled like.” Love Story: The life-sized bronze statue of William McKinley has kept watch over the Statehouse’s West Plaza since 1906. It commemorates the two years the statesman spent living across the street during his term as our 39th governor. “Each day on his way to work, McKinley would turn and wave to his wife Ida who watched from the window of the Neil House hotel, where they were living,” Jalkanen says. “The wave became so popular that people would line the streets to watch.”  Free guided tours are offered seven days a week. 1 Capitol Square, Columbus 43215, 614/728-3726, ohiostatehouse.org .

Really cool self guided tour. This is one of the most beautiful capitols. Parking is underneath the building.

Our guide was a retired teacher that gave the informative tour... He totally made it interesting! It was nice to see ....not the most gorgeous I've ever seen, but they were some beautiful architecture and we learned a lot!

Not my favorite or most beautiful and ornate capitol, but our tour guide was the best and gave a great historical and informative presentation on the building and surrounding area. Highly recommend this free tour and visit. Parking below the capitol was $3 per hour and it's the most convenient option as street parking is limited. We're happy to have stopped for a visit and learned a lot about Ohio's history in a couple hours. Highly recommend touring the building with the guide

Ohio Statehouse is located at the heart of Columbus on Capitol Square. You have to go through security screening at any entrance. It was quick and we walked straight to the tour desk at the map room. Walk-in tours start on the hour, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays. The guided tour was very informative. The guide explained about the history of the building. Lots of rich history to take in. This magnificent Greek Revival structure was started in 1839 and completed in 1861. It is situated on a 10 acre land that was donated by four prominent landholders. The building is limestone that was taken from a quarry on the west banks of the Scioto River. Prison labors from the Ohio Penitentiary were used to construct the building. The history is intriguing. The Capitol Square complex includes the Ohio Statehouse, Senate Building and Atrium. The Capitol Atrium acts as a connector between the Statehouse and the Senate Building. The grand Rotunda or the center piece of this beautiful capitol building has a stained glass seal of Ohio on top. Its 125 feet from the floor to the top of the Rotunda. Ohio is often referred as "Mother of Presidents" as eight United States Presidents were born in Ohio. The Ohio Statehouse has named six House and two Senate hearing rooms in honor of Ohio's eight presidents. In each of the presidential hearing room, there are artifacts that are associated with each of the president. These artifacts reside in a secure case and its on display for the pubic to see. There is also a very interactive Ohio State House Museum that highlights Ohio's government history. It houses modern displays of new government as well as the original Ohio declaration. The museum itself was pretty large covering most of the basement. There were some kid friendly interactive exhibits as well as interesting reading for adults. It also has a touch screen and video which traces Ohio's history and key constitutional moments. Map Room is in the basement of the structure that connects the senate Building and the state house. The state of Ohio is comprised of 88 counties as diverse as the state itself. The map room has beautiful county map of Ohio that is laid out on the floor. There is a gift shop right across the map room that features unique gifts and artwork from Ohio artists. The Capitol Cafe is open weekdays with delicious food. There is so much to discover here just by simply walking around. Worth checking out, It's great for all ages! We parked in the facility's underground parking garage, it was convenient.

Try to visit when the tour is offered. We accidentally visited one hour before the tours begin and kept getting lost in the building. So we probably missed a lot of good exhibits. Pretty architecture, but not as pretty as the nearby Supreme Court building.

I came here because I figured it would be a nice stop since I was in Columbus, the Capital City of Ohio. Being that I've been to Ohio a million times, why not check this place out? The building is easy to find and has a parking garage on site, which I recommend. Guided tours are temporarily halted, but you can do a self guided tour with a few phone numbers to call if you want to know what you're looking at. They have security here, so don't try to pull any funny stuff. Leave your guns in the car, num-chuks, etc. I did the whole tour in under an hour and took some really cool photos when I was there. Staff is helpful and nice, and they even have a gift shop too! I will say, the gift shop is cool, but I didn't buy anything. I got to see the senate chambers and paintings of some of the congressmen over the years. This place is worth a trip and you can knock it out of the park in under an hour. Worth checking out!

There was meter parking that was free all around the state house on Sunday. We joined a free tour with another couple on the hour after getting through security. Building is opened until 5. There is a cafe, museum & gift shop inside. Jeff told us about the capital before leading us on a tour. The building is limestone built by prisoners in 1839 to 61. Lincoln's body was in repose in the rotunda. Now weddings are held here every Saturday evening. In 1861 Lincoln spoke in the House Chambers but women couldn't attend since they could not vote. In the museum, we saw the state Construction, things found when the capital was renovated & info for children about the way the government works. We wandered through chambers & the museum spend about an hour here.

Most every day I take the dogs for a long walk. There are three of them and usually I handle them one at a time - this makes the wrangling easier and it also gives me more walking exercise time for myself, as well as giving them some individualized attention & love. Occasionally it's nice to mix it up a bit as far as locations, and this particular time I chose the Ohio Statehouse grounds for one of these dog romps. The Statehouse for years has been a regularly visited place for me. And a truism for most people is that when you're frequent and familiar with almost anything, you might begin to overlook or ignore all of its wonderful attributes. In short, take for granted how special and magical something can be. Well, I'm absolutely glad I took this opportunity, because as we wandered among the grounds, statues, secluded nooks, and hidden crannies, I discovered anew just what I love about this place. I've posted some photos of our visit and they contain just a few of my favorite spots. A quiet grouping of tables near the north portico of the Senate building. And close to that the bee apiary- which most people probably don't even know exists on the grounds. A little beyond that area are the letters from soldiers to home that are engraved on memorial walls. To the northwest front of the main building is the statue titled "These Are My Jewels" depicting Ohio and some of the leaders who helped save the Republic during the Civil War. Scattered about the grounds are authentic working Civil War era cannons. The memorial to President William McKinley, set at the spot where, when Ohio Governor, he would daily turn on his walk to the office & wave to his wife who was terribly ill and sitting in a hotel window across the street - Ida and William McKinley is one of the greatest of Ohio's love stories I think. The Holocaust Memorial - set on the grounds not just for millions of Jews who were killed, but also to ethnic minorities, gypsies, Freemasons and other disenfranchised groups. The grounds are beautifully manicured and throughout the warmer months there are wonderful landscape beds and flowers. There is so much to discover here just by simply walking around. And what I've described is only the outside - the inside is an even more amazing treat. A must visit, and it's all free and open to the public.

Next time I'll come for a real tour. We stopped in for House Taco but decided we had to pop up to the rotunda since we had never been inside before!

Due to my recent uptick in visits to the statehouse, I was inspired to finally leave it a review on Yelp! Over the past decade I've visited the Ohio Statehouse on multiple occasions. Whether to protest SB5, health care reform, women's rights, Black Lives Matter, or to celebrate Ohio Tourism day, and well, really just to enjoy while on a walk downtown. On the outside, this building is beautiful! The grounds are well kept and a joy to view during the spring and summer months. If you're around during lunch midweek you'll likely notice folks enjoying lunch on a bench or reading a good book in the grass. As for the inside, I've only been through the doors once and that was years ago. I can't remember what issue I was there to support but I do remember it feeling very old, yet fancy. Likely what you expect from a government building of its type. I tend to pay a lot of attention to the ceilings and the floors of old buildings like this. Not sure why but that's always what catches my eye the most. Really pretty and like you're taking a step back in history.

The Most Beautiful Building In Every US State

Posted: January 2, 2024 | Last updated: January 2, 2024

Awe-inspiring architecture

From significant government buildings to historic residences and even train stations, this diverse collection of constructions have been deemed the most beautiful in the US. Thanks to research compiled by Angi based on TripAdvisor rankings, we take a look at the most attractive building in every state.

Click or scroll through to see if your favorite made the list...

Alabama: Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Mobile

Alaska: St Michael's Russian Orthodox Cathedral, Sitka

Arizona: Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona

Blending into the surrounding red rocks, this chapel was built in 1956 by visionary architect and sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude. It was designed to reflect the spiritual essence of the Sedona landscape. Staude was inspired by the powerful steel frameworks of skyscrapers – a theme that's explored with its central iron cross, which serves both a structural support and aesthetic purpose. The striking design is rounded off with a 210-foot-tall (64m) central nave and windowed altar.

The interior is just as impressive, with over 1,200 seats in an auditorium that's reached via a grand staircase through the lobby. It's a beloved institution and has hosted opera, ballet and live music, with Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra among those taking to the stage.

Florida: Stetson Mansion, DeLand

Built for John B. Stetson, the inventor of the Stetson hat, this Florida mansion was finished in 1886 and features 16 distinct rooms across more than 8,000 square feet (743sqm) of living space. Apart from ornate woodwork and stained-glass windows, the mansion has a few surprises up its sleeve. Those who join a tour will be shown to a hidden door, among other unique features.

One of the oldest operating temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (informally known as the Mormon Church), the Idaho Falls Temple was opened in 1945 and is a stunning example of Art Deco architecture. The white granite facade appears to glisten in daylight, while its spire, topped by a golden statue of the Angel Moroni, stands 143 feet tall (44m). Although it's an active place of worship, visitors can take a tour of the temple grounds and learn about the history of the fascinating building and the church.

Illinois: Holy Name Cathedral, Chicago

In a city where great architecture abounds , it's quite the accolade to be named the most beautiful building. That honor goes to the 19th-century Holy Name Cathedral, a Gothic Revival marvel. The cathedral's spire stands out at 210 feet (64m) and is a familiar sight in Chicago's skyscraper-punctuated skyline. A Catholic place of worship, the cathedral is just as majestic inside too, with wood carvings and stained glass on almost every wall.

Iowa: Capitol Building, Des Moines

A marvelous building inside and out, the Kansas State Capitol was finished in 1903.

The rotunda is adorned with a mural that depicts key moments in the state's history, including the struggles of the Civil War. Self-guided tours are available to those who want to discover its grand hallways, marble staircases and ceremonial and legislative offices.

Kentucky: New Capitol Building, Frankfort

Built in 1910 to replace the earlier capitol building – which is still standing in downtown Frankfort and now serves as a museum – the new capitol is actually the fourth capitol building since Kentucky achieved statehood in 1792. It's a sprawling Beaux-Arts confection, with decorative lunettes above the chamber doors which depict significant historical moments in Kentucky.

Completed in 1917, this building is a stunning example of Greco-Roman architecture.

The complex is also famous for its oil wells and, outside, you'll find the only state capitol grounds in the US with active oil rigs.

Washington: Seattle Public Library, Seattle

West Virginia: St Peter's Roman Catholic Church, Harpers Ferry

Wisconsin: Wisconsin State Capitol, Madison

Built in a Neoclassical style we've seen in plenty of state capitol buildings on this list, this one was completed in 1917 and remains one of the state's most recognisable landmarks. The towering dome rises 187 feet (57m) and is made of white granite. At the top sits a statue of a globe-clutching lady known as Wisconsin, which represents the state's motto, 'Forward'. The two interior must-sees are the rotunda, modeled after the Pantheon in Rome, Italy and the Senate chamber, which is reminiscent of the Parthenon in Athens.

Wyoming: Wyoming State Capitol, Cheyenne

Completed in 1890, the Wyoming State Capitol has been the heart of the state's political life for over a century. Grand and imposing, the exterior is dominated by a soaring dome, while the interior is equally as impressive, with grand staircases, ornate decorations and a rotunda modeled after the US Capitol in DC. If you take a tour, you'll see that the Senate chamber is adorned with paintings of Wyoming's early pioneers and other famous figures.
