public viewing on the same bier in the under the Capital Dome that Lincoln was given.

You can see the wood stand that held Lincoln's casket for his viewing at the Capitol if you know where to go. I believe it's in a hallway off the side of the gift shop, in a roped off area, down the stairs. A security guard can escort you, though I'm sure security is much tighter these days.
