Valentown Museum and Icabod Homestead
Valentown Museum is a intriguing historical museum located in Victor, New York. It contains thousands of artifacts, objects and heirlooms that represent the local 19th century history of the Victor and Rochester, New York area. We believe that historic Valentown Square serves the people and enhances the quality of life in Western New York through education and historic preservation.
