The Famous United States Capital Dome
The capital dome was completed on December 2, 1863 when the statue of Freedom was place on top of the dome. It is such a fitting finale for the building it crowns, so familiar and dignified, that it seems surprising that its design and construction came late in the Capitol's architectural evolution.
