The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum - Springfield, Illinois

This 200,000 square foot complex is designed to impress both the history lover and their tag-along friends or family members. The museum allows you to experience Abraham Lincoln's life from a small boy growing up in his one room cabin reading by the fireplace to his law office and then on through the White House years. Each section of the museum has things to appeal to every type of learner with the interactive displays/videos, written documentation and beautifully designed displays. The 4-D theater is a perfect way to end a fun day at the Lincoln Museum. I would highly recommend this museum to help history come to life.
