Postville Courthouse State Historic Site

We made a quick stop here. We spotted it on our way to another attraction. We really enjoyed the quick walk around this place. I will defiantly go back one day and really check out this piece of history.

They are open from 12-4pm on Saturdays so we timed it right when we stopped to visit. This is not the original courthouse but it is still interesting to see. The lady working was very informative about the courthouse which was interesting to learn new details about the history of Illinois. They sell postcards and magnets in the museum. There is a suggested price of $2 to view the museum which is very reasonable. The well is right across the street from the courthouse that Lincoln drank water from.

The Postville Courthouse is located on Route 66! Who doesn’t love driving on Route 66. This is a must see if you’re traveling through Lincoln. There are picnic tables outside of the courthouse if you decide to eat lunch there. #bucketlist

Very interesting.
A Court House that Abraham Lincoln argued cases before.

Great event! Bob Rankin is excellent at coordinating the event! Great crowd! I will definitely return!

A wonderful place to visit in historic Lincoln. Drive the town. Do the circuit and see the old building where they wanted to steal Lincoln's body. Then drive to Middletown to visit the old stage stop.

It's an excellent resources to imagine the life of the settlers and especially Abraham Lincoln. He practiced law at the original building, and this is a faithful reproduction on the original site. The admission is on the donation system.The gorgeous overhang of branches from sycamore trees provide a lovely atmosphere to relax outside when the weather is permitting.

Beautiful old building

We learned a lot of the town's history from our visit here on a Saturday afternoon. The tour guide was super sweet and knowledgeable and definitely made the visit worthwhile!

Denise gave us a great tour about the court house and what Lincoln did during his circuit court years. We enjoyed it very much

A nice 15 to 30 minute visit. The volunteer was very nice.

Very informative and interesting, and humbling to know where we came from to where we are now. Any one who resides in the "Land of Lincoln" should take a trip to the Postville Courthouse.

Very good

Had a tour during the Railsplitter Festival. Take time to watch the short video. Felt like I was literally walking in their footsteps.

Quaint old place. Just what I figured Lincoln would have worked in. Route 66 day trip.

History at its best with educated staff on the area learn about deskins tavern and ask about the water pump

It's very cool to see what we used to be back in the ol days
