Meet some of Lockport’s famous citizens with the Niagara County History Center’s Step Back in Time Players. Learn about the beginning of the Erie Canal and our early history and industry. Chat with people like DeWitt Clinton, Jesse Hawley, Aunt Edna Smith, Raphael Beck, Kate Chase Seymour, Birdsall Holly, William Rand Kenan, and Sara Lamb Cushing.

Step Back in Time runs July and August of this year or other times by appointment. A variety of venues showcase different historical personalities. Relax and listen to our re-enactors on a narrated trolley ride, cemetery tour or at the Palace theater. (See schedule below.)
