Illinois River

This diorama was reconstructed using scientific data gathered and analysed by Museum scientists. It shows what the river, river bank, and a backwater lake would have looked like around 1673.
For more ecological and economic information about the Illinois, visit the Museum's Web exhibit, Harvesting the River.
