Oriskany Museum

About

The Oriskany Museum tells three stories under one roof: the Battle of Oriskany, the history of the village of Oriskany and the story of the USS Oriskany, the Navy aircraft carrier named for the battle. It is a local museum with a strong sense of place.

For history lovers, the museum makes a natural companion to the nearby battlefield, putting the 1777 fight and later local history side by side. It is a focused local museum with a clear connection to its home village in Oneida County.
