Montpelier loves our State House, too! The city's "valentine bandit" turned its major attraction into a welcoming 2007 Valentine. The State House is open to visitors from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm and while the legislature is sitting.

Seasonal Tours

Guided tours, run by our trained volunteers, are available on the half hour, July through October, Mondays through Fridays from 10 am until 3:30 pm. On Saturdays, tours begin on the half hour from 11:00 am. until 2:30 pm. The legislature is not in session during these months, making most of our beautiful, restored State House accessible.

Group tours must be arranged in advance by calling (802) 828-2228, the Sergeant-at-Arms office. If it is expected that a group will lunch in the State House cafeteria during their visit, arrangements should also be made in advance, but group Tours during the legislative session January through May require special arrangements. School Tours have specific requirements.

Self-touring
when guides are not available is possible by using our informative map/brochure of the Capitol building. Most public rooms are open, but a few can be viewed only through the open door unless a guide is present. The Vermont State House is open Mondays through Saturdays from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm.
