    Preserving History Through Living History

    The Illinois Amish and Abraham Lincoln’s parents invite you to East Central Illinois.

    Living History, beginning in the latter part of the 20th century, radically changed how history is taught, from traditional museum settings to experiential, hands-on learning, opening new vistas in museum education. In addition to museums, cultures such as the Amish have also preserved many of the ways of the 19th and early 20th century. Come join us in a look at how both living history museums and the Illinois Amish are preserving our heritage.
