The Genesee Country Village & Museum was founded by John Wehle in 1966, created to preserve the dwindling rural architecture in New York’s Genesee Valley, which stretches from Lake Erie and the Niagara Frontier to the Finger Lakes along the Genesee River. This living history museum today consists of six hundred acres of both wild and cultivated land, the Genesee Country Nature Center, an art gallery, the Heirloom Gardens, the Carriage Museum, and the nineteenth-century Historic Village. The idea of the Historic Village is to depict how a town within the region may have changed over the years.
