Lincoln Memorial

Sunday, 17th April 2005 by

The Lincoln Memorial is in Washington DC, just west of the Washington Monument (posted earlier).

The Lincoln Memorial was built to resemble a Greek temple. It has 36 Doric columns, one for each state at the time of Lincoln’s death. A sculpture by Daniel Chester French of a seated Lincoln is in the center of the memorial chamber.
