Historic Preservation

Support the Preservation of the Cayuga Museum Grounds

The Cayuga Museum of History and Art exists in three historic buildings: the Willard-Case Mansion, the Case Research Laboratory, and the Carriage House Theater. All three buildings are on the National Register of Historic Places, with the grounds continuously occupied since 1836. As a result of the property's various owners, visitors to the Museum experience a unique blend of 19th century architectural elements with modern exhibit spaces. This space has inspired generations of visitors to make an impact through history, art, and science.
