Old State House
Government Building
The 1762 Old State House on North Main Street was the seat of Rhode Island's colonial and early Revolutionary government. Here, on May 4, 1776 — two months before the Declaration of Independence — Rhode Island became the first of the thirteen colonies to formally renounce allegiance to King George III. The building later served as the state capital until the current State House opened in 1904. A National Historic Landmark.
