STATE CAPITOL, NASHVILLE, TENN.
E-4665
Back:
The grounds upon which the Capitol
building is located are perhaps the most
beautiful site for a capitol building in the
world, being in the center of the city and
197 feet above the level of the Cumberland
River. The building is of Grecian architec-
ture, constructed of fossillated limestone,
hewn and chiseled from the quarries around
Nashville—the blocks of stone weighing from
six to ten tons. On the grounds are several
monuments and historical markers, including
a fine bronze statue of General Jackson.
