The Geneva History Museum tells the story of the growth and development of this small Finger Lakes city over 300 years. Located in an historic house, the museum has furnished period rooms, a children's discovery space, and exhibits and archives that explore community history from the time of the native Seneca through the tumult of the 20th century to the present. Also available are printed walking guides to historic parts of the city and significant buildings in town.

This former Texaco Gas Station was built in 1922. Years later, the service bays were added until the Gas Station closed down in the 1970's. The city of Geneva then acquired the property. In 2003, Sampson Glass, an auto glass repair shop, occupied the building and two years later, in 2005, the Greyhound Bus Station took residence. In 2013, the current owners, Donna and Bob Stivers had the building renovated and created the Lake Street Station Winery. They kept the old Texaco theme, a place where you can still Fill Er' Up, but it's going into glasses, not gas tanks. Lake Street Station Winery opened Memorial Day Weekend 2013 off of Routes 5&20. The winery is walkable from downtown Geneva, as well as the Rose Lummis Tour Boat, Hampton Inn and Ramada Inn. There are always two sides to every story... On one side of our building we have a full cocktail bar, cafe and gift shop with beer and wine making supplies.
