Texas State Capitol markers

The grounds of the Texas State Capitol at 1100 Congress Ave contain multiple historical markers and monuments that document the building's construction between 1882 and 1888 and its listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Markers note the building's architect, Elijah E. Myers, and the use of local Sunset Red granite in construction. The Capitol grounds include memorial stones and interpretive plaques for legislators, wars, and notable Texans.
