WRITE YOUR PART IN IT
The village was founded about 1803 and Lacona was incorporated as a village in 1880. Lacona initially grew as a result of the Watertown and Rome railroad which was an important part of early commerce for the region.
The railroad is a proud part of our heritage and the Lacona depot was restored as both the Lacona and Sandy Creek Village Offices. A variety of historic documents, photos, postcards, and railroad memorabilia are housed here.
