Help us make it rightTwo rare nineteenth-century portraits of Abraham Lincoln will be on display at the Old State Capitol State Historic Site, 5th and Adams, in Springfield, Illinois, following a reception on February 7, 2008, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm.

The building was also used for local events like dances and conventions. Today it has been preserved as a State historic site.
