Is Lincoln Memorial worth visiting?

Yes! This is an iconic Bucket List National Park Site to visit and so worth it. 

History of Lincoln Memorial

The Lincoln Memorial is located in Washington, D.C. on the west side of the National Mall.  It sits across from the Washington Memorial. 

Born in a small Kentucky cabin in 1809, young Abraham Lincoln’s parents, Tom and Nancy, instilled in him hard work, education, and kindness towards others. 

At an early age, others recognized the constant determination of Lincoln to work hard and succeed at whatever he did.  Nicknamed the “rail-splitter” it was said he could split 400 rails a day. 

Lincoln’s interest in politics stemmed from a respect of the founding fathers and he was elected to the Illinois legislature in the 1830s. 

Additionally, Lincoln taught himself law and was admitted to the Illinois bar in 1837.  Lincoln’s life began modest and poor, but in 1842, one more change – he married socially prominent Mary Todd. 

The couple had four sons together.  A member of the House of Representatives and then a Senate race all led to Lincoln’s national notoriety and his election as the 16th president of the United States in 1860. 

The Confederate States of America formed in 1861; Lincoln realized the problems between the north and the south would not be resolved without great action. 

As the Civil War broke out between the Union and the Confederacy, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in January 1863.  This held that all slaves being held in the Confederate slaves were thereby considered free. 

Lincoln was reelected in 1864, vowing that the Union’s goal was to create unity among the nation.  The April 1865 victory of the Union placed the literal United States of America down a new path and one that would test Lincoln in his new role as Reconstructionist. 

Tragically, just five days after the Confederacy surrendered, Lincoln was assassinated at Ford’s Theater in Washington, D.C. on April 14, 1856.  The Confederate sympathizer assassin long worked as a suave actor in the D.C. theater scene. 

The “rail-splitter’s” legacy of hope, freedom for all, and unification for the country has never been forgotten, and in the wake of the tragedy, the Lincoln Monument Association was created.

The first public memorial was placed in D.C.’s City Hall and was built by Lot Flannery in 1868.  The Lincoln Monument Association was at work planning a much larger monument although this project took much planning and years to come to fruition.

Official authorization for the monument was given in 1911, and in 1914, American architect Henry Bacon was chosen to serve as designer, as his grand plan was to somewhat mimic the Parthenon in Athens.  Ground was broken to begin the project in February of 1914. 

The site for the memorial was a low, flat land surrounded by three waterways.  Great care had to be taken in constructing such a massive structure at this location.

The sub-foundation was created using 122 concrete piers with steel rods placed into the bedrock.  The upper foundation is a series of more piers resting on columns. 

The top piers were joined together by concrete arches and later covered with a casing of marble.  Construction continued steadily until 1917 when America entered World War I.  Construction never ceased but was slowed down considerably. 

By the time the Parthenon-type exterior was complete, it was clear that the initial vision for the statue of Lincoln would need to be scaled much larger.  Additional steel was added under the floor of the memorial to prepare for the statue of Lincoln to be placed.    

Truly a labor of American love that Lincoln himself would’ve appreciated, materials for the construction of the spectacular structure were collected from unique locations across the country.

The upper steps and columns contain marble from Colorado.  The lower steps are made of granite blocks from Massachusetts.  The interior walls are made from Indiana limestone.  Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama marble are found in floor and ceiling tiles, and the Lincoln statue itself. 

Henry Bacon’s vision in all of these materials were not by random, it was a symbol of national unification to create a moving tribute to a truly remarkable leader. 

The Gettysburg Address and Second Inaugural were carved into stone under murals painted at the tops of the north and south walls. 

The north wall mural is entitled Unity.  It represents the Angel of Truth placing together the hands of two people – representing the north and south.  Her wings are enclosing seven figures which represent Painting, Philosophy, Music, Architecture, Chemistry, Literature, and Sculpture. 

The memorial architect himself, Henry Bacon is located on the left of the mural as well.  The south wall mural is entitled Emancipation.  It depicts the Angel of Truth releasing slaves from their shackles.  On the left side, Justice and Law are represented and on the right, Faith, Hope, and Charity. 

In January 1920, the statue of Lincoln himself was completed.  The exquisitely carved Lincoln was created by six skilled immigrant brothers. 

They created their masterpiece in the Bronx of New York city, and the piece was then transported as large blocks to D.C. and put back together with nearly invisible seams.  Details of Lincoln’s sculpture subtly hide deep meaning. 

Lincoln’s hands were sculpted to include one hand clenched into a fist and one open wide.

The clenched hand represents Lincoln’s determination to see the Civil War through to its end, and the open hand symbolizes Lincoln’s openness to welcome back the Confederacy into the Union. 

The Lincoln Memorial was dedicated on May 30, 1922.  Surely what would have saddened the deceased President was the fact that the dedication ceremony was racial segregated. 

Black citizens in attendance were placed far from the memorial and had to stand behind a rope barrier.  The lone African American speaker at the ceremony was famed Tuskegee Institute president Dr. Robert Russa Moton.  Moton was not allowed to sit on the stage with fellow speakers during the ceremony. 

What President Lincoln stood for and what the memorial represents was an ongoing battle in the United States for years to come. 

On August 8, 1963 famed civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech in front of the Lincoln Memorial. 

To begin his speech he alludes to one of Lincoln’s most famous speeches by stating “Five score years ago…”  In reference to the Emancipation Proclamation, King stated “It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.”  

As he sits stoic, staring through the columns and into the grandeur that is America’s capital, President Lincoln lives on through his National Memorial. 

The site reminds citizens of American’s history and the fact that poor, humble, hardworking rail-splitters have the freedom to become one of the world’s most influential leaders.
