Has some very good Civil War memorabilia and history photos. Was featuring an exhibit on the Elmira Confederate Prison Camp, which was the Andersonville of the North. At the Woodlawn Cemetery, you can see 3,000 of their graves.
They also offer a carriage tour around town as part of your admission, which I didn't go on.
