| Abraham Lincoln is buried 10 feet and a slightly in back of this monument inscribed with his name and birth and death years. |
There is a great deal of detail and information about the Lincoln Tomb at this Wikipedia page.
Man and I spent the last hour or so of our visit to Springfield at Lincoln's tomb and driving around the cemetery. We felt it was a fitting, quiet, peaceful end to an educational and moving day.

And he is buried in solid concrete thanks to grave robbers.
I have never seen Lincoln's burial place. Thanks for this post. Anxiously awaiting your next finds on this years trip.
