The State Capitol Building of Alaska is notable for its lack of notoriety. Unlike many state capitol buildings, it occupies a small parcel of land and is of simple, utilitarian construction. The reason for this is because the state was unable to raise funding for a capitol building when the state was founded. However, upon achieving statehood, Alaska inherited this building from the federal government.

The building is home to both the legislative and executive branches. Tours are free, 30 minutes long, and available from May to September, 7 days per week.
