Featured Area: Salamanca, NY

Ninety six percent of the City of Salamanca is located on a Native American Territory, the highest percentage of any U.S. city. Known as the Allegany Territory, these Seneca Nation lands are nestled in the scenic Allegheny Plateau*. Salamanca grew to be a major railroad town, with the Erie, Baltimore & Ohio, Buffalo & Pittsburgh, and Rochester & Genesee Valley Railways all having facilities there. Much of the housing that was originally built was for the workers of the railroads, contributing to the growth of the city. The region (area) also has a rich lumber history, with vast quantities of hemlock, maple, oak, and cherry harvested from the surrounding forests and brought to Salamanca for shipment by rail. *Allegany & Allegheny are two commonly used spellings; the former usually referring to places in NY and the latter typically describing PA locations.

Salamanca Rail Museum

The Salamanca Rail Museum pays homage to this era and the fascinating Railroad History.

The Salamanca Area Historical Society Museum also shares the history of the City and has three floors (handicap accessible) in a building that dates back to 1882.

The Enchanted Mountains offers a plentiful feast for art lovers of all kinds, whether you are a serious collector or someone who just enjoys a visual treat! Our thriving arts community is enriched by theatre companies, individual artists, arts associations/groups and art events. One of the pleasures of living in the Enchanted Mountains is the ability to be entertained, enhanced, and excited by the Arts.

The Tri-County Arts Council (TCAC), formerly known as the Cattaraugus County Arts Council, leads the way for established and aspiring artists. It promotes the creation, presentation, and appreciation of arts and culture in the region. They help foster a place where people want to live, work, and raise families by offering a variety of art classes for adults and children, and professional development workshops for artists. They host the annual Art in the Park in Olean, free family art days, the Southern Tier Biennial Contemporary Art Exhibition, and provide a professional art gallery for local and regional artists.

The Cattaraugus County Living Arts Association calls the classic Ray Evans Seneca Theater home. Located in the center of the City of Salamanca, on the iconic corner of Broad Street and Main Street, the name pays homage to Ray Evans—songwriter best known for famous ditties like "Silver Bells" and the score from "The Lemon Drop Kid"–who was born and raised in Salamanca. At least two fullscale productions and one annual Christmas Variety Show are held here each year. Last year’s “Beauty and the Beast” earned numerous TANYS awards. They also hold summer programs and youth theater workshops. Visit them online at RayEvansSenecaTheater.org.

Onöhsagwë:dé Cultural Center The new home of the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum August 2018 marked the Grand Opening of the Onöhsagwë:dé Cultural Center in Salamanca, which is truly a place you need to experience.

The impressive, new, 33,000 square-foot facility houses the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum, and also has components of an educational facility, living culture elements, and performance spaces. There are spaces devoted to archives, an expanded gift shop, a conference room, a classroom setting with technological equipment, and even a space that contains 3D Printers. On the backside of the building, there is an amphitheater that is built into the natural landscape.

The Cultural Center is named after Richard “Onöhsagwë:dé” Johnny-John.

“Onöhsagwë:dé” means “an opening in the house”. He spent his whole life on the Allegany Territory, dedicating many years to preserving Seneca history and culture by becoming a bilingual specialist for the Seneca Nation.

The classroom is available for groups and educational tours. Students can be guided through the museum and then come back to the classroom for more educational videos

and lectures and a chance to ask Cultural Specialists specific questions they may have.

E-tours are being developed so people from around the world can experience the museum from afar.

The former Seneca-Iroquois National Museum was a temporary location, but lasted 41 years, almost to the day of the Grand Opening. The smaller space did not allow for preservation of rare artifacts or expansion, and artifacts had to be sent to other facilities.

In fact, 95% of Seneca artifacts have never been on display due to their delicate nature.

The new Cultural Center brings ample space and the technology needed to bring some of these artifacts home and properly care for them.

The interactive and informational exhibits tell the history of the Seneca, from The Creation Story to present day. Other exhibits include a welcoming “Gustoweh”, The Clan System, a log cabin that visitors can walk through,

stereotypes as seen in pop culture, Seneca Women, Arts and Sports, The Kinzua Dam Project and how it directly affected the Seneca People, current members of the Seneca Nation, and a photo opportunity spot. While there are opportunities to touch or listen to certain components of these exhibits, tours are also available and highly recommended.

The outside of the building is just as impressive with certain plants growing around the Center that are important to Seneca culture and a walkable wetland Medicine Garden that holds plants used in Seneca tradition for healing and treatment of disease.

The amphitheater will host events coming Spring 2019 and can hold up to 400 people. A Longhouse will eventually grace the posterior of the building, the first to be raised in the Allegany Territory since 1820.

Seneca Nation of Indians Onöndowa’ga:’ Great Hill People - Keepers of the Western Door The Seneca have a rich and full history and a culture that still lives on today. Seneca culture and values remain strong and intact. The vibrancy of their rich heritage is evident in the cultural events, dance, music, arts, crafts, and foods that visitors are invited to experience.

Highlights include the Main Street Mural overlooking the Allegheny River, Native American Arts, the Ohi:yo’ Social Traditional Pow Wow and Marvin “Joe” Curry Veterans Pow Wow, Seneca Bingo, Seneca Nation Library, Highbanks Campground, SnowSnake and Lacrosse Games, and of course, the new Onöhsagwë:dé Cultural Center.

The Seneca Nation has over 8,500 enrolled members and holds title to five territories in Western New York, specifically, the Allegany, Buffalo Creek, Cattaraugus, Niagara Falls, and Oil Spring territories. The Seneca Nation is one of the original Five Nations of the Hodinöhšyönih, or Iroquois Confederacy.

This union was created to bring peace to the Hodinöhšyönih, also known as the “People of the Longhouse.” Comprised of Chiefs from the Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, and Mohawk, it operated under a sophisticated oral tradition. This code of conduct is known as the Great Law of Peace. The union was later expanded to include the Tuscarora, becoming the Six Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy.

The Hodinöhšyönih nations’ contiguous lands originally stretched across what is now New York State, similar to the shape of a longhouse.

The Seneca controlled trade and traffic at the western edge of the Iroquois territory, which is why they are referred to as “Keepers of the Western Door.” The Mohawks, who lived near the Hudson River, are called “Keepers of the Eastern Door.”

Like other Iroquois nations, the Seneca historically lived in longhouses, which were long, narrow bark-covered dwellings that housed several families. The Seneca are known as Onöndowa’ga:’, (pronounced: Ohn’own-dough-wahgah) or “Great Hill People.”

Traditional Seneca culture is defined by the clan system. There are eight clans among the Seneca: Bear, Beaver, Turtle, Wolf, Deer, Hawk, Heron, and Snipe. Clan membership is

Ellicottville Brewing Co.

Ellicottville Distillery

Ellicottville Brewing Company, established by beer-loving founder Peter Kreinheder in 1995, not only introduced craft beer culture in Western New York, but continues to set the standard for innovative and authentic brewing of delicious craft beer leading EBC to win three International World Beer Championship Awards. EBC has a brewpub, beer garden, winter event igloo, and event rentals.

Surrounded by rolling hills and agricultural fields is the Ellicottville Distillery. They focus on making the highest quality boutique spirits by growing most of their ingredients from seed to glass. Their line of spirits, The Agronomist, embodies this connection; producing Corn Whiskey, Corn-Distilled Vodka, Apple-Distilled Vodka, and honey spirit.

Ellicottville Winery

Four Mile Brewing

A father-in-law and son-in-law craft the wine on-site using only local grapes and all-natural ingredients to create 18+ varieties of wine.

Grapes are harvested, crushed, blended, aged, and bottled on-site by two people, Dominic and Sam. Their secret to great wine?

They’ve learned the details, and they attend to them every single day.

A great stop for craft beer enthusiasts, Four Mile Brewing is Olean, NY’s first brewery since prohibition closed the doors on this same location in 1920. Nearly 100 years later, four Olean guys had a crazy idea: A high quality, low cost, local beer; a product the people of the area could be proud to call their own. And with that, they started Four Mile Brewing!

A little bit of Buffalo in Ellicottville by featuring trademarked beers named in honor of the history and culture of iconic Buffalo neighborhoods. They have 54 taps, a pizza oven, and some Buffalo favorites like beerbattered fish fries with rye bread.

Ski or Snowboard The feel of controlling your speed on the snow

Telemark skiing at Holiday Valley camera Matt Brahaney

There are two great places to ski or snowboard in the Enchanted Mountains; Holiday Valley Resort and HoliMont in the small ski town of Ellicottville, NY. Holiday Valley Resort features 60 trails and slopes with a 750-foot vertical drop, 13 lifts, and four terrain parks. While Mother Nature provides plenty of snow, dropping on average 180 inches of snowfall each year, Holiday Valley takes it to another level. Each year, they invest in snowmaking equipment, currently totaling 611 snowguns and 95% snowmaking coverage. Holiday Valley offers nighttime skiing at its finest--39 slopes and trails remain open well after dark, creating a magical world of twinkling lights dotting the slopes.

Check the ski conditions and learn about other activities at HolidayValley.com.

HoliMont is North America’s Largest Private Ski Resort, but opens its doors to non-members during the week. The terrain is incredible, the lift lines are short, and the grooming impeccable. The slopes at HoliMont are Northfacing, creating amazingly true fall lines. The resort is expanding westward and new trails are created every year. Family-friendly, a great sense of community, fifty-two slopes and trails, and 100% snowmaking coverage. Please note, there is no night time skiing available.

Swing of Spring Squishy Squishy

Spring ... it's paddling time!

Spring weather in Cattaraugus County means it’s time to get outside and explore the beautiful rolling hills as the trees begin to bud and the wildlife wakes up from a long winter nap.

The Enchanted Mountains have so much to offer as it comes alive for spring- from whitewater rafting, and biking- all while getting some fresh air and exercise!

Whitewater Rafting

Rafters and Kayakers in the Zoar Valley section of the Cattaraugus Creek camera Rick Miller 2009

This is a great water adventure!

Cattaraugus Creek offers Class III and IV whitewater for you to whitewater raft and kayak. Peak season is early spring as snow begins to melt and then again in the fall, when the rains raise the water level back up. It is important to wear appropriate safety gear at all times as whitewater sports are very dangerous.

Please call the below guide company to help mold a journey to suit your group’s skill level.

Whitewater Kayaking Safety First!

There's a local group that can help you learn the river sport of whitewater kayaking.

Zoar Valley Paddling Club is a whitewater kayaking and paddling non-profit organization that spans from the Buffalo/Western New York to North Western Pennsylvania Regions. Their purpose is promoting and practicing proper paddling and safety, organizing and holding club trips and events, aiding in river protection and conservation, and introducing river sport to new members.

Cycling Trail / Road A bicycle ride on a trail is safer than on the road as you don't have to worry about vehicles as often. Be sure to discuss bicycle safety with fellow riders.

Bike on Trails Plan some time with your friends on the following trails: The Allegheny River Valley Trail is 6.2 miles of paved trail that runs along the Allegheny River, through Olean, and around St. Bonaventure University. This is a great option for a family or beginner as there are benches with river views all along the trail. Rentals are available at the Twist 'n Shake.

In addition to mountain biking trails, Allegany State Park also offers 5.6 miles of paved trail on the Red House Area with 3.1 miles looping around Red House Lake. Rentals are available at the Red House Lake Boat area.

Sky High Adventure Park Are you up for a challenge in the trees?

Located at Holiday Valley Resort is Sky High Aerial Adventure Park, which offers an Aerial Park, a Climbing Forest, a Mountain Coaster, and Gem Mining!

The Aerial Adventure Park is a playground in the trees that features a series of platforms and bridges to challenge your strategies, strength, and balance to complete. There are 13 total courses of varying difficulty to choose from.

Cross bridges, climb ladders and soar on zip lines to get to the next platform, all while safely harnessed in and with trained staff nearby to help.

The Sky Flyer Mountain Coaster is a roller coaster that zig zags and spirals down 2,940 feet of mountain while maneuvering 15 curves, 12 waves, a jump, and a corkscrew spiral.

Riders can control the speed of their car to take advantage of this thrilling adventure or slow it down to a slow and steady ride of leisure.

The Climbing Forest is a 3D version of a climbing wall. There are 9 trees outfitted with color coded climbing holds and the difficulty ranges from very easy to very challenging.

Each climber is fitted with a harness that is clipped into an Auto Belay system.

Mister Happy Gem Mining was added in 2018 so kids can experience old fashioned panning for gold. Except they have a three pound bag of sand containing gems, fossils or sharks teeth.

The little miners will dump the contents of their bag into a frame with a screen on the bottom to wash the sand away to see what treasures are left behind. Then they can compare what is left with their identification card and learn more about their gems or fossils.

Open May through October, but because they’re weather dependent, we encourage you to call first -- 716-699-HIGH or online at HolidayValley.com/Summer.

The Finger Lakes Trail is a 558-mile trail that travels through New York State from the Allegheny Mountains to the Catskills.

Approximately 80 miles of the Finger Lakes Trail, which merges with the North Country Trail, runs through Cattaraugus County.

History Legends & Lore History means many things to different people.

Cattaraugus County has been around a long time, having celebrated its bicentennial in 2008, with Little Valley and Great Valley celebrating their own in 2018. Leon also celebrated the 200th anniversary of their first settler in 2018.

Many towns and villages are growing excited with anticipation of their 200th year. Stepping into one of our many museums will take you on a journey from discovering the countless individuals and situations that made us who we are today, where we are today. Our museums will help you discover what that architecturally unique building once was, or why we have a vast amount of cultures and diversity for such a small County.

A grassroots group, Citizens Advocating Memorial Preservation (CAMP), has assumed ownership of a historic site in the heart of Little Valley. The former Cattaraugus County Memorial and Historical Building, at the corner of Court and Seventh streets, was dedicated in 1914 to the county’s Civil War soldiers and sailors. As such, it is the county’s most noteworthy Civil War monument.

Attached to the Memorial, and also part of CAMP’s property, is the former Board of Elections building, which dates from the mid-twentieth century. Having saved the Memorial complex from demolition, CAMP is now raising funds to restore the two structures and find appropriate uses for them. Visit CattCoMemorial.com
