Lincoln Memorial

A tribute to the country’s 16th President, who led during the Civil War. The structure is designed as a neoclassical temple, similar to Parthenon in Greece with 36 fluted Doric columns representing states of the Union at the time of Lincoln’s death, plus two at the entrance. President Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address and his Gettysburg Address are both engraved on the walls of the memorial chamber.
