As of October 1st, NONE of the buildings are open. Yet, you can still walk through the entire site, and get a good feeling of what life was like in 1860 Springfield. You can walk onto the grounds of the Lincoln house, but the Visitor's Center, and all of the buildings are closed. I'd still highly recommend visiting the site.
Q:
Are the grounds only open at Lincoln Home National Historic Site due to Covid 19?
A:
Tours of the home are not available due to Covid-19 restrictions, but you can walk around and see the outside. The Visitors Center at the site is closed as well.
Q:
Is it open on Sundays
