The Lincoln Memorial
The Lincoln Memorial was designed by Henry Bacon. It was started in 1914 and opened to the public in 1922. Go here to learn more about Lincoln Memorial!

Inside the memorial, a 19-foot tall statue of Lincoln sits looking east toward the Washington Monument and the Capitol. Passages from the Gettysburg Address and Lincoln's second Inaugural Address are carved into the walls. The Lincoln Memorial is a historic site to visit, and the lighting illuminates the building once the sun sets in the evenings.
