The old capital building that you see here is in the center of the campus of Georgia Military College now. But the federalist style building is the former capital building of Georgia. Milledgeville was the capital of Georgia from 1803 to 1868 And even though the building is on Campus of GMC it houses the Old Capital Museum that you can visit. It's just a short walk to downtown Milledgeville where you will find several fabulous restaurants and some wonderful shops. I love to spend an evening dining out downtown and walking around and enjoying the beautiful stately trees and wonderful architecture. If you are ever near the central part of Georgia, it's a stop worth taking. There is a wonderful trolley tour available that I hightly recommend. In fact, the ghost trolley tour tickets should be on sale soon. I need to get those quick this year. They always go fast.
