My brother and I had visited Montour Falls quicly on a day trip in January 2019 and it was frozen and absolutely beautiful and stunningly visible from the moment we turned onto Main St. We subsequently visited the area and stopped by in the summer. Not so impressive with little to no water. The best time to visit is in the winter. Don't forget to eat at Paradiso's Village Bakery in town. Delicious!

A very nice place to visit. A short walk along a trail takes you to a beautiful waterfall. Go early in the morning to beat the crowds that will go swimming there and ruin the view.

The Schuyler County Historical Society's Brick Tavern Museum and Wickham Rural Life Center are located in Montour Falls, just south of Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes Region of New York. The Brick Tavern Museum is a large Federal-style structure built in 1828 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Museum has exhibits relating to Schuyler County’s rich history, including Native Americans, textiles, fashions, medical artifacts, transportation and area industries. A superb research room makes the Museum a desirable stop for genealogists. Admission is free, though a fee is charged for non-members doing research. A gift shop offers books on local history and handmade items from area artisans. The Wickham Rural Life Center has exhibits on late 19th and early 20th century country living. A few miles to the south on Route 14 is the Society's 1884 one-room schoolhouse, the Lee School. It is open by appointment only.

A very pleasant surprise! We were just looking for something quick to do while vacationing near Watkins Glen and ended up staying for close to two hours. A lot of great artifacts and a very nice, well-informed staff.
