  • Off the beaten path, and a place you probably didn’t know existed! Built in 1825, the Log Inn was a stagecoach stop, trading post, tavern and a place to dance! But in 1844, future president Abraham Lincoln stopped here to get a bite to eat, and as they say: the rest is history!
    Still a great place to get home cooking and wonderful pies, it’s a must stop for Abraham Lincoln fans. The room where he dined, has Lincoln memorabilia and the original log walls. Simply a great stop for dinner, in Southern Indiana!

    I live in Boonville, IN, just south west of the Lincoln's boyhood home. It's rumored that Linclon frequently used the library in Boonville which has earned the city the phrase "where Lincoln learned the law."

    That bar top is most likely made from a old growth poplar tree. They was in abundance and grew very large. A tree that was used for log cabins also.

    Being a lifelong Civil War buff and a native Southerner my personal hero is General Robert E. Lee, so I certainly can appreciate your own feelings as a Yankee for Abe Lincoln.
    Once upon a time we used to be able to all celebrate our history, heritage, and ancestors without acrimony and ugliness. Sadly, that seems to have changed in recent years and I really lament that.
    Our national unity depends on mutual respect and consideration. The whole post-war reconciliation between the North and the South was founded on the belief that both sides fought with honor for earnestly held beliefs about the nature of our federal union.
    The people who strive so hard to undo that today would not have found favor with either President Lincoln or with General Lee - both of whom greatly lamented the horror and bloodshed of the War Between the States. Food for thought….

    • @AdventureswithRoger
      @AdventureswithRoger  Месяц назад

      I’ve left Facebook civil war forums where people try to revise history to fit modern ideas, villainizing all confederate soldiers with one paintbrush. Even as a Yankee, I understand the south’s position, the need for national reconciliation after the war, why confederate memorials were important, and believe Robert E Lee was a good man. The important thing is to learn from history, so bad things won’t happen again, not revise it to make people comfortable or superior.

      The official map address is Haubstadt, but if you look up Warrenton, and zoom in: you see the Log Inn. The Log Inn brochure has both town names mentioned, with Haubstadt listed first.
      The tie breaker for me, was when I typed in the name of the place, in RUclips, where you register new videos, and it pulled-up Haubstadt. This feature links to online maps, and if people click on the link, they’ll be taken to a map of how to get there.
