The Grand Village of the Kickapoo is a Kickapoo village site in rural McLean County, Illinois, United States. The village site includes the Warren Bane Site, a defensive fort which was built circa 1750 to protect the village. The village was occupied until 1813, when a U.S Army officer under the command of Zachary Taylor burned the village.[2]

The Warren Bane Site has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1982.[1] It is one of the sites that has its address restricted by the National Register due to fear of vandalism and looting.
