Standing on Capitol Hill, it serves as the seat of the Tennessee General Assembly and the governor’s office, representing the state's legislative power and political heritage. Constructed between 1845 and 1859, the Tennessee State Capitol was designed by prominent architect William Strickland, who drew inspiration from classical Greek architecture, specifically the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates in Athens. This Greek Revival style, characterized by its stately columns and symmetrical design, was chosen to evoke ideals of democracy and civic virtue, resonating with the principles of ancient Greece. Over the decades, the Tennessee State Capitol has witnessed numerous historic events, including legislative sessions, speeches, and gatherings that have shaped the state's trajectory. Despite modifications and conservation efforts, the building has maintained its historic grandeur, embodying resilience and continuity. This scale model of the Tennessee State Capitol highlights its classic architectural features, including the grand portico, tall Corinthian columns, and the notable tower, reflecting the beauty and significance of one of the oldest working state capitols in the United States.
