Visit Lincoln's Pioneer Village Website
The Lincoln Pioneer Village Museum includes hundreds of artifacts from the area's historic past including a hutch made by Abraham Lincoln's father. Located next to the museum is the historic Lincoln Pioneer Village, consisting of cabins that are replicas from the Lincoln era in Spencer County.
