The Illinois Lincoln Highway Coalition is producing a series of Interpretive Murals to be installed along the Illinois Lincoln Highway National Scenic Byway and its corridor in northern Illinois. Each mural depicts the history, heritage and events of the highway and its impact on the communities.

The Coalition works in a collaborative process directly with local historians, civic leaders, and talented artists to bring the murals to each community. This project effort provides a wonderful way to share the intriguing stories about the evolution of travel with the visitors who explore the Lincoln Highway in Illinois and discover all that it has to offer. Upon completion of this project a visitor brochure will be created highlighting each mural. Many Interpretive Murals can already be found along the Illinois route; look for the mural icons in the visitor guide and on the website. The remainder of the Interpretive Murals will be installed in the near future - check back for the latest information.
