宾州州会大厦, 位于哈里斯堡的市中心, 目前的大厦是第三个, 第一在1879年火灾中摧毁, 第二在1899年被停资没有完成. 现在的州会大厦是Joseph Miller Huston的作品, 建于1906年, 共耗资原规划的三倍之多. 大部分建筑中的雕塑, 画, 和其他艺术品都是出自宾州艺术家. 大厦在2006年誉为国家古迹National Historic Landmark.

跟大多数的州会和国会大厦一样, 圆顶是大厦的特色. 圆顶直径29米, 上面站立了一个4.42米高的雕像于1.2米大的球上. 整个圆顶重量达2.4万吨.





内部以Henry Chapman Mercer制造的150平米的小瓦片为主, 共勾画了377个马赛克254个宾州历史中的场景
