  • The Life & Times of Lincoln in Illinois
    The Life & Times of Lincoln in Illinois Day 1 Bloomington, Illinois (Gateway) Morning Start your day at the magnificent David Davis Mansion, once owned by Lincoln confidante and close friend, Judge David Davis. This stately 19th century mansion, and its beautiful grounds, will give you a glimpse of the social and political life Lincoln knew.

Next stop will be the McLean County Historical Museum – inside a beautiful old courthouse on the town square. Here you’ll find the many stories of the people and the landscapes of McLean County through the years, including many of the local residents who were Lincoln’s contemporaries as he rose from prairie lawyer to the man who would be president. (Don’t miss the first floor Visitor Center – with more on the Abraham Lincoln National Heritage Area, as well as the Illinois Route 66 National Scenic Byway.) Afternoon Scattered around the square, you’ll find lovely shops and great locally owned restaurants for enjoying a great lunch – as well as a variety of Lincoln wayside exhibits. Time to hit the road for short trip south to Lincoln, Illinois. You’ll discover a remarkable collection of Lincoln-related artifacts and documents at the Lincoln Heritage Museum, on the campus of Lincoln College. Treasures include china, books and mourning clothing that belonged to Mary Lincoln, as well as original correspondence from President Lincoln, as well as every member of his cabinet and Civil War military leaders.
