Litchfield Museum and Route 66 Welcome Center / Museum in Illinois
ROUTE 66 PASSPORT STAMP PLACE Displays and exhibits at this premier museum are diverse as well as interesting. They range from a Litchfield Fire Department’s hand-drawn fire wagon to a mural that chronicles Litchfield's rich history. Unique exhibits include the 1904 cornerstone and time capsule from the old American Radiator Company. The Historic Route 66 display features the artistry of Bob Waldmire in maps and drawings, an original Route 66 road sign, a gas pump, vintage cars and a flip-chart with historic pictures from Route 66 communities. A particularly popular section is the veterans displays with items from early wars along with articles and pictures.
