Parliament - Ottawa
THE PARLIAMENT. The Parliament Buildings dominate the city from Parliament Hill. The three celebrated Gothic buildings with green copper roofs were originally built 1859-66. The Center Block was destroyed by fire in1916, but was later reconstructed according to the original design, minus the wood-paneled interior. The only section of the Center Block left undamaged after the fire was the library.

Parliament - Vienna - Austria
Theophil Hansen created the parliament building, constructed from 1873 to 1883 in the style of the Greek Revival. He also created the Pallas Athena Fountain in front of it; this 15-foot figure of the Greek goddess of wisdom is by Karl Kundmann. Until 1918, the elected representatives serving in the Council of the Empire met here in legislative session for the Austrian half of the dual Austro-Hungarian Monarchy which extended from Galicia (now Polish and Ukrainian territory) all the way to Dalmatia (the Adriatic coast of modern-day Croatia).
