Maryland State Govt
The Maryland State House, located in Annapolis, is the oldest state capitol in continuous legislative use and holds the distinction of being the only state house to have served as the nation's capitol. It was the site of significant historical events, including George Washington's resignation as commander-in-chief and the ratification of the Treaty of Paris, which ended the Revolutionary War.
This historic building serves as the venue for the Maryland General Assembly, convening annually for three months, and houses the offices of the state's elected leadership, including the governor, lieutenant governor, and legislative leaders. The Maryland State House stands as a testament to over 250 years of rich history, architecture, and artwork, reflecting the heritage of the state and its governance.
