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.
Visit where thousands of Seneca lived 300 years ago, tour a full-size replica of a 17th-century Seneca Bark Longhouse, walk miles of self-guided trails, climb the mesa where a huge palisaded granary stored hundreds of thousands of bushels of corn, and learn about the destruction of Ganondagan, Town of Peace, in 1687.
