The statue that lies on top of the Capital building is the "Statue of Freedom" designed by architect Thomas Crawford. His design was approved in 1855. There is a link to an article about this statue below.
The Capitol is topped by a large bronze statue called "The Statue of Freedom", and depicts a female figure wearing a feathered eagle helmet and carrying a sword and shield. For this reason, it is also sometimes called "Armed Freedom." The statue is approximately 6 meters tall and was completed in 1863.
