Things to do in Springfield

Springfield is the capital of Illinois and the city Abraham Lincoln called home for 24 years before he left for Washington. State government is the largest employer, and lobbyists, attorneys and agency officials travel here constantly, especially during the legislative session. Healthcare is the other pillar of the economy, anchored by two large hospital systems and the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, and the city is also a hub for insurance, education and the agricultural businesses of central Illinois.
