Menard is a small place in Randolph County, Illinois, in the United States. It's called an 'unincorporated community' because it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town does. Instead, it's part of the larger county.

You can find Menard right on the east bank of the mighty Mississippi River. It is located just west of a town called Chester. Menard has its own post office and uses the ZIP code 62259. A notable building in the area is the Menard Correctional Center.
