Officials prepare to reopen Visitor Center at Lincoln Birthplace

Visitors to the Lincoln Birthplace will soon be able to enter the visitor center again. The park announced recently that the visitor center would open for tourists on April 7th, after being closed for several months as crews worked to install fire suppression systems inside of the structure. The building, built in the late 1950’s, houses the park’s gift shop, as well as theater and museum components. The $349,000 project began on January 21st. The system was the first of its kind to be placed in the center.
