| Facility: | Henry S. Lane Home | ||
| Description: | The Henry S. Lane Antebellum Mansion is a beautiful Greek Revival home that has enjoyed a complete and careful restoration. Henry and his wife Joann built the home in 1845. Lane was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1860 but his most noteworthy accomplishment may be his direct involvement with securing the nomination of Abraham Lincoln for the presidency. Lane later served as a pallbearer at Lincoln's funeral and a lock of Lincoln's hair is on display at the mansion. Over ten rooms full of the Lanes' original furnishings and belongings make this historic home an authentic example of a pre-Civil War dwelling. National Register of Historic Places. | ||
