Lincoln Home National Historic Site

Lincoln's Home

The only home that Lincoln ever owned was this one in Springfield, Illinois. Lincoln Home national Historic Site has preserved the home as it was when he lived there. As far as homes go, this one is pretty typical of the time period. It was interesting, but unless you’re a huge fan of Lincoln, I wouldn’t put it on the top of my must-see list.

  1. This was a very nice tour. All furnishings are from Lincoln’s era even if thet were not specifically his or Mary Todd Lincoln’s.
