The United States Capitol, often called the Capitol or the Capitol Building, is the seat of the United States Congress, the legislative branch of the federal government. It is located on Capitol Hill at the eastern end of the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Like the principal buildings of the executive and judicial branches, the Capitol is built in a neoclassical style and has a white exterior. Central sections of the present building were completed in 1800. The massive dome was completed around 1866 just after the American Civil War. The dome was designed by Thomas U. Walter, the fourth Architect of the Capitol, The dome is not stone, but rather cast iron carefully painted to appear to be made of the same stone as the capitol building below.
