Two hundred years after his birth, the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln continues to fascinate and inspire. Born into poverty on the edge of an untamed frontier, his rise from obscurity to greatness has become a symbol of the universal hope that we can all improve our circumstances in life.
This museum contains an amazing array of artifacts, photos and interactive exhibits covering the Civil War era including important events and people as well as lesser known aspects of the time.
