Benicia Capitol State Historic Park, a California state park in Benicia, preserves the state's third capitol building, where the State Legislature met from February 3, 1853, to February 24, 1854, before voting to move the capital to Sacramento. It is the only pre-Sacramento capitol that remains. The park also includes the Fischer-Hanlon House, moved to the site and converted into a home in 1858, along with a carriage house, workers' quarters and sculptured gardens.
