- Kevin KinkadeAugust 13, 2014Get there early for a less crowded tour group (take the tour...the guides' knowledge is awesome ). Take time to enjoy/look around the judicial wing, amazing variety of architecture, painting & rock.

- Katie JohnsonAugust 9, 2012Visit on April 15th...there's usually a Tax Day Tea Party rally in front of the Capitol. For once, if you're a conservative and in Madison, you won't feel outnumbered.
- Dave CAugust 21, 2011Take some time and walk through the building. Try not to remove the awesome sconces and period wood and stone working. Gorgeous!!!
