Springfield and Sangamon County are located on the Sangamon River, in the prosperous agricultural region of central Illinois. It is a community with an important and renowned historical past and an even more propitious future.
Springfield’s most celebrated citizen, Abraham Lincoln, lived here between 1837 and 1861. Through his efforts, along with eight other members of the Illinois Legislature, Springfield was selected as the State Capitol in 1837. The only home Lincoln ever owned is located near the center of modern Springfield and is open to visitors all year round. Following his assassination, Lincoln’s remains were returned to Springfield where they now rest in Oak Ridge Cemetery. There is also a wonderful and newer site honoring our former leader, the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum located in downtown Springfield.
Springfield supports an assorted, broadening economic base. It serves as the retail shopping center for an eleven county area with more than 650,000 residents.
