Every Tuesday evening, experience a breathtaking flag-lowering ceremony! The rhythmic drumming fills the air as the 114th Illinois Volunteer Infantry Regiment marches in to perform a poignant tribute in front of Lincoln’s Tomb. The ceremony includes a powerful musket firing and a resounding cannon salute. Each week, a lucky audience member is honored with the presentation of the flag, creating a cherished memory.
Enjoy this experience as part of History Comes Alive through August 5!
