Entitled "Christmas Memories," the show will feature handmade quilts
displayed throughout the courthouse. Visitors may vote for their
favorite quilts. The show is sponsored by Lincoln's Logan County
Arts & Craft Guild and the Postville Courthouse.
Postville Courthouse State Historic Site, administered by the
Illinois Historic Preservation Agency, is a reproduction of the
first Logan County Courthouse, used by Abraham Lincoln and others
from 1840 to 1847. It is normally open Tuesday through Saturday from
noon to 4 p.m. Tours are free, although a donation of $2 for adults
and $1 for children is suggested.
