Texas State Capitol

The Texas State Capitol in Austin, Texas is the largest State Capitol building in the US. The capitol has more floor space than any other state capitol building, and is almost 15 feet (5 m) higher than the National Capitol.

The state capitol was recently at the centre of a controversy about the displaying of a granite monument of the Ten Commandments. The display was challenged as unconstitutional but the Supreme Court ruled that the display was not unconstitutional.
