The North Carolina State Capitol was completed in 1840 and is a major civic building in the Greek Revival style of architecture. The State Capitol building is a National Historic Landmark. Located in the 1916 Andrews-London House, the Capital Area Visitor Center is a permanent information and rest center for more than 100,000 annual visitors to Raleigh's state-owned and cultural attractions.
The Capitol housed all of North Carolina's state government until the 1880s. The Supreme Court and State Library moved to a new building in 1888, and the General Assembly moved to the State Legislative Building in 1963. Today the governor and lieutenant governor, and their immediate staff, occupy offices on the first floor of the Capitol.
