19TH-CENTURY HISTORIC VILLAGE Explore, see, and experience our Historic Village. We invite you to tour spaces and buildings representing home, civic, social, economic, farm, and religious life throughout the 1800s. Be sure to visit Nathaniel Rochester House (#12), open every day, to delve into the real and often untold history of enslavement and freedom in the Genesee Country. HISTORIC COOKING & BAKING See, touch, and smell what's cooking in our historic kitchens! Visit Jones Farm (#14) to learn about 1850s farmhouse life, where meals are prepared from the garden, either fresh or preserved. Stop into the Livingston-Backus House (#38), where the cook would have had access to the Public Market
