The Michigan State Capitol
Enter the building to go back in time — back to the Victorian era of fine craftsmanship, elegance and grand opulence. Magnificent chandeliers softly light halls as they did when the Capitol was lit by gas; walls and ceilings glow with authentically-restored painted colors and patterns; and furnishings recreate the aura of another age. Accessibility information provided by Choose Lansing (Greater Lansing CVB) as destination input and supplemented with public data from the venue's website; not verified on-site by AbleVu.
