Notes
  • Significance: This Greek Revival-style brick and sandstone structure served as the California State Capitol between February, 1853, and February, 1854, when the capital was moved back to Sacramento. Thereafter, the structure remained the Solano County courthouse until 1858 and served at various times as the city hall, public library, fire department, and grammar school, in addition to housing many informal civic functions. It was thoroughly restored by the state in 1956-57 and has been maintained since then as a museum.
