Springfield, Illinois, January 14, 2006

The vault where Lincoln's casket was held when it first came back to Springfield.

This is a Civil War memorial, with GAR (Grand Army of the Republic) inscribed along with the dates of the war, 1861-1865

The only remaining law office where Abe Lincoln practiced law while he was in Springfield.

The Old State Capital, where Lincoln argued cases, and also spent some time as a state representative.

This is the only original building, the cooper.

Here is the re-creation of the mill. Most of the buildings here are re-creations based on drawings and maps.

What are seagulls doing in Illinois?

This big guy was getting a bit close.

Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, built 1902-1904
