Springfield, Illinois, USA. The final resting place of Abraham Lincoln, his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, and three of their four sons at Lincoln's Tomb.


The final resting place of Abraham Lincoln, his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln and three of their four sons. It is located in Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois. Following Lincoln's death, his body was placed in a nearby receiving tomb and later in the state tomb. The mausoleum is owned and administered by the State of Illinois as Lincoln Tomb State Historic Site. It was designated one of the first National Historic Landmarks in 1960, and thus became one of the first sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, when that designation was created.
