Take a moment to enjoy the short docent-led tour of this small but interesting former state capitol building. Built in 1791 and since restored, the Old State House contains art galleries and in-depth exhibits about the First State's history and politics. We learnt here that every state house in the USA has a portrait of George Washington!
