This is the Capitol Building built in 1934, based on the 1705 original which was destroyed by fire. For a complete history on the capitol CLICK HERE
This neat old tree grows out behind the capitol. It split in half but is still growing! For an interesting story about trees in Colonial Williamsburg during the 18th century CLICK HERE and to visit ABC Wednesday CLICK HERE!
