The Dana-Thomas House re-opened on Thursday, April 23, 2009.
"In 1902, Frank Lloyd Wright was commissioned to undertake the design and construction of a massive renovation of the Lawrence family home in Springfield, Illinois. The home was to be more than a mere residence -- it was to be a showcase. Upon its completion in 1904, the new edifice completely engulfed the original home. It immediately became a symbol of artistic and architectural excellence.

The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum combines scholarship and showmanship to provide the world's most unique and enjoyable history museum experience. From the full-size replica of the 1861 White House facade with the Lincoln family standing in front, to the roar of cannons or the appearance of ghosts on stage, to the priceless original Lincoln artifacts on display, the museum offers something for everyone.
