Lincoln City is an unincorporated community in Carter Township, Spencer County in the southwestern part of the U.S. state of Indiana.
[1] It lies five minutes south of Interstate 64, northeast of Evansville, and approximately twenty miles north of the Ohio River.
President Abraham Lincoln spent much of his childhood (from the ages of 7 to 21) on this farm, and as a young man he practiced law at the nearby Spencer County courthouse.
The living-history farm is a working pioneer-style homestead with a cabin, outbuildings, split rail fences, animals, gardens, and field crops.
NPS interpreters in period clothing perform a variety of activities typical of the 1820s, and the farm's grounds are open year-round.
