    Stop by the historical plaque of Lincoln's Farewell to Illinois, marking Abraham Lincoln's final speech in the state on February 11, 1861. It was a brief stop on the way to his inauguration. Lincoln made additional stops, like one in Danville, but his speech in Tolono was especially memorable. Lincoln only returned to Illinois after his death in 1865. This marker is an interesting stop for history enthusiasts.
