Genesee Country Village & Museum

The Genesee Country Village & Museum features 68 historic buildings across its grounds, showcasing traditional crafts and daily activities from the 1800s American rural life.

Founded in 1976, this open-air museum preserves and presents the cultural heritage of the Genesee Valley region through authenticated structures relocated from surrounding communities.

The museum offers educational programs about 19th-century customs, including demonstrations of period-specific cooking methods, textile production, and agricultural practices.

Visitors can access guided tours, participate in seasonal markets, and attend specialized workshops throughout the year, with dedicated programs for school groups and families.

The museum maintains active historic gardens that produce period-appropriate vegetables and herbs, used in cooking demonstrations within the authentic 19th-century kitchen settings.
