    Description

    This is a vintage miniature bar of soap from the former St. Nicholas Hotel in Springfield, Illinois.
    The item is in good condition.
    The
    St. Nicholas Hotel
    is a historic hotel building located in
    Springfield
    ,
    Illinois
    .
    The original building of the St. Nicholas Hotel was constructed in 1855; the current main building was constructed in 1924.
    During sessions of the
    Illinois General Assembly
    , the Hotel became a meeting place for Illinois politicians, who often conducted political business within the building.
    The hotel has hosted many notable visitors to Springfield, including three U.S. Presidents:
    Harry S. Truman
    ,
    Dwight D. Eisenhower
    , and
    John F. Kennedy
    .
    The hotel was added to the
    National Register of Historic Places
    in 1983.
    It is the only remaining hotel in Springfield which dates from the 1920s or earlier.
    The hotel is no longer in operation, having switched over to apartments.
    The building is now referred to as the St. Nicholas Apartments.
