State House Tours |
|
The
Massachusetts State House is one of the most
historic structures in the United States.
State House tours are conducted by the staff
of the Tours and Government Education Division
of the Secretary of the Commonwealth's Office
and by volunteers well-versed in the history
and architectural background of the State
House. The tours are given weekdays year-round
from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, and are free of
charge. The State House is closed on weekends
and holidays.
Tours last
approximately 30-45 minutes and include an
overview of the history and architecture of
the State Capitol as well as visits to the
major ceremonial halls and the chambers of the
Senate and House of Representatives.
