On January 14, 1998, the Wisconsin Assembly met at the First Capitol in Belmont in honor of the sesquicentennial of statehood. The Territorial Legislature held its first session there in 1836, then convened for three more sessions in what is now Burlington, Iowa, during 1837 and 1838. In November 1838, the legislature moved to Madison, where subsequent sessions have been held.
