The Land of Lincoln

At the Metamora Courthouse State Historic Site you will find the historic court house where Lincoln often visited while he was practicing law. Across the street you will find statues of Lincoln and Mary. She is half his size and surely would not be happy with the way her statue looks! But they are quite interesting and you can see them from the main road as you drive through town.Stop and check it out!
 Abraham Lincoln and Mary   
"Abraham Lincoln traveled this way as he rode the circuit of the eighth judicial district ...1847-1857"
