This living history museum is the largest and most comprehensive living history museum in New York State – and the third-largest in the United States
Founded in 1966, this living history museum is the largest and most comprehensive living history museum in New York State – and the third-largest in the United States.
The museum spans 600 acres and includes a recreated 19th-century historic village, the John L. Wehle Gallery and the Genesee Country Nature Center, all of which provide interactive programs, fascinating exhibits and special events to help you live history.
See, smell, taste, touch, explore and experience 68 historic buildings and more than 20,000 artifacts while knowledgeable, costumed interpreters keep the hearth fires burning, the heirloom gardens flourishing and the livestock tended. Watch live demonstrations at the pottery, cooper shop, tinsmith and blacksmith amidst the aroma of fresh baked pies and bread.
Children will also enjoy the one-room schoolhouse and the 19th-century games they can play on the Village Square.
