Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, came to central Illinois as a young man. It was here that he spent more than half of his life. Honest Abe traveled central Illinois as a country lawyer preparing for his political career, and he lived, worked and raised his family in the Springfield area. We invite you to explore, learn and enjoy the land Lincoln loved.
