Near the geographical center of Illinois, Springfield became the state capital in 1837 as the result of a campaign led by Abraham Lincoln, who had recently became a resident. "To this place, and the kindness of these people, I owe everything," he remarked as he left for Washington for the last time. Springfield's reminders of Lincoln are everywhere: the only house he ever owned; the parlor where he was married; the office where he practiced law; and the tomb on the northern edge of town where he, his wife and three of their children are buried. Just south of the Amtrak station is an excellent view of the state capitol, on the west side of the track.
