    The Old State House is on a quaint little street in a cute part of town. There was plenty of nearby…read moreparking when I went. The tours were free, but it wasn't crowded and we basically interrupted the guide's phone call.

This building and the furniture inside of the Old State House were uninteresting to me. Though the stairs were enjoyable to see inside and outside.

I was mainly there just to see the building. I would recommend if you are interested in Delaware politics and history go here.
