Come share an evening with us that you won’t soon forget! The new state-of-the-art Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum was carefully designed with exacting historical detail to encourage an “experience” for all visitors. Amazingly well-preserved artifacts tell the entire life story of our nation’s 16th President.
Dedicated to the life and legacy of our 16th President, the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum brings together the world’s largest collection of documentary material related to the life of Abraham Lincoln. The museum, unlike any other in the U.S., features hi-tech exhibits, interactive displays, and multimedia programs, as well as a reproduction of the White House as it looked in 1861.
The Presidential Library is home to the world’s largest collection of Lincoln-related documents, artifacts and books, including more than 12 million items from the Illinois State Historical Library. Whether learning more about the life and times of President Lincoln or following your own family’s genealogical ties to Illinois, the Presidential Library is an amazing resource of information for families, historians and scholars.
