About Erie Canal Discovery Center

The Erie Canal Discovery Center in Lockport explores the history and impact of the Erie Canal on the region. Visitors examine artifacts and exhibits related to the canal's construction and operation, learning how this waterway shaped Niagara County's development. The center features the Penney Gallery, an exhibition space that displays rotating exhibits connecting visitors to the canal's legacy. Exhibits interpret the canal's role in transforming the Niagara Frontier from Native American occupation through the early 20th century. The facility serves as part of the broader Niagara History Center, which interprets 175 years of local heritage across multiple buildings and locations. Interactive displays and educational programs help visitors understand the canal's engineering achievements and its significance to regional commerce and settlement patterns.
