Town of Clay

About

The Town of Clay is the local government for Clay, a town north of Syracuse in Onondaga County. Its historic site includes a welcome center, the Cigarville Railroad Station Museum and a replica of the first log cabin built in Clay around 1795.

The grounds also hold the Sellen-Weller 1840 barn, and next door stands Immanuel Lutheran Church, described as the oldest church in Onondaga County, with archives dating to 1823. For local history fans, it is a compact stop that packs a good share of the town’s early story into one spot.
