No. The state's capital was first in Wheeling. In 1870, the capital moved south to Charleston. In 1875, the capital moved back to Wheeling. In 1877, Charleston was declared the permanent location for the state's capital. The capital was moved once again to Charleston in 1885. In 1921, the capitol building burned and the "Pasteboard Capitol" was built. The present day capitol building was built in Charleston in the 1920s and very early in the 1930s, where it has remained since.
Is the Texas capital taller than the us capitol?
The Texas State Capitol is 326.6 feet tall making it almost 15 feet higher than the U.S. Capitol building. It is however not the only state Capitol to exceed the height of the federal capitol building. I have found some research which indicates the actual dome rises 311 feet while the Goddess of Liberty rises for 15.6 feet but have not been able to verify those numbers. Here is some additional information from the state preservation board. "An extraordinary edifice by any measure, the 1888 Texas Capitol is the largest in gross square footage of all state capitols and is second in total size only to the National Capitol in Washington, DC. Like several other state capitols, the 1888 Texas Capitol surpasses the National Capitol in height, rising almost 15 feet above its Washington counterpart."
