Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Illinois

While in Illinois, you might enjoy a visit to:

A dense and varied variety of crazy metal creatures and characters created by a junk art sculptor, exhibited on his lawn.
~50 miles from Paxton.

Centerpiece of an old campground. So tall that he could look in the windows of a seven-story building. He appears ready to touch the clouds.
~65 miles from Paxton.

Agritourism the way it should be. Watch calves being born in the Birthing Barn, then see 72 cows at a time automatically milked on a revolving giant turntable!
~58 miles from Paxton.

Although "two-story outhouse" may seem like a dumb joke, this one is authentic -- and its town considers it historic and worthy of civic pride.
~72 miles from Paxton.
