The Ohio Statehouse has joined the national movement to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln which occurred on February 12, 1809. The Ohio Statehouse will host a variety of special events, re-enactments and exhibits throughout 2009.

Through educational programs, public forums and special events, the Ohio Statehouse Lincoln Bicentennial will provide an opportunity for all Ohioans to learn about our nation's 16th President and the struggles he endured to hold the nation together.

Two centuries after Lincoln's birth, the Ohio Statehouse continues to educate its visitors on the three historic visits by this great leader. The Ohio Statehouse Bicentennial commemoration of Lincoln's life and legacy will be a bright beacon in carrying on the legacy of our nation's 16th president.
