Review & FAQ:

The Nebraska State Capitol is located in downtown Lincoln and is the seat of the government for the U.S. State of Nebraska. Designed by New York architect Bertram Goodhue and constructed between 1922 and 1932, the capitol features a three-story, 437-foot tower in which the primary executive and judicial offices of Nebraska are housed and can be seen from as far away as 20 miles. Also referred to as the “Tower of the Plains,” the Nebraska State Capitol was the first state capitol to incorporate a functional tower into its design. The base of the tower houses offices most frequently visited by the public, and tours of the building are available every hour throughout the year.
