Ganondagan State Historic Site
Just 20 miles southeast of Rochester is Ganondagan State Historic Site
Just 20 miles southeast of Rochester is Ganondagan State Historic Site, the site of a Native American community that once was a flourishing, vibrant center for the Seneca people. As one of the six nations comprising the Iroquois Confederacy, the Seneca’s democratic ideals served as an inspiration for the U.S. Constitution.
