The Geneva History Museum at 543 South Main Street covers the full arc of Geneva's history from its Seneca Nation origins through the canal era through the 19th-century reform period through the industrial and agricultural economy of the 20th century. The collection includes material on the Seneca Nation communities that occupied this corridor before European settlement and the specific role that the Geneva area played in the Treaty of Canandaigua negotiations of 1794. A morning visit before the drive to Canandaigua or back east provides the northern context for everything the itinerary covered in Auburn and Seneca Falls.
