How to Use This Lebanon, Illinois Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lebanon, Illinois. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Illinois or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lebanon.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Lebanon, Illinois

Lebanon is a locality in St. Clair County, Illinois, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,691. The population density is 672.1 people per km². Lebanon is located at 38.6039°N, 89.8073°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Lebanon is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 62254.

Lebanon anchors the flat, fertile expanse of the Illinois prairie, where the quiet current of Little Silver Creek carves a thin, winding ribbon through the surrounding fields. It lies 5.7 miles east of O'Fallon, IL (from O'Fallon, IL: bearing 82°T), and is situated 5.7 miles east of O Fallon. The horizon stretches wide and unobstructed, defined by the seasonal shifting of corn and soybeans that catch the low, amber light of the late afternoon. Two miles to the east, the steady, rounded rise of Emerald Mound breaks the monotony of the plains, acting as a fixed point in a landscape that otherwise favors horizontal lines and vast, open skies. At the center of the grid, Puiblic Square serves as the primary clearing, a place where the air hangs heavy with the scent of turned earth and the distant, rhythmic hum of regional traffic.

Lebanon carries the weight of a long-standing academic tradition, grounded by the presence of McKendree University, which has influenced the intellectual and social character of the locality since its early settlement. The economy remains tied to the cycles of the interior plains, balancing the quiet administration of institutional life with the practical demands of a rural trade center. While the bustle of larger hubs feels distant, the pace here is dictated by the academic calendar and the turning of the soil. Residents often look toward the horizon, acknowledging the expansive, grain-fed geography that keeps them tethered to the land, while the quiet proximity of Sportsman Lake offers a modest, inland retreat for those seeking the stillness of water amidst the inland fields.

About This Lebanon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lebanon, Illinois. Coordinates: 38.603938, -89.80732. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Lebanon includes the ZIP code (62254), telephone area code (217), county seat of St. Clair County (Belleville), and school district assignment (Lebanon Community Unit School District 9).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
