2016 Map of Dannemora

About this map

Dannemora sits at the foot of Dannemora Mtn, a village defined by its significant institutional history and early infrastructure. The map documents several cemeteries tied to these facilities, including the State Prison Cem and the State Prison and Hospital Cem, reflecting the area's long-standing role as a correctional and medical hub. The industrial and transit history of the region is traced by an Old Rail Road Bed passing through the village, while to the south, the Saranac River flows toward settlements like Cadyville and Woods Mills. Along the river’s path, small communities such as Elsinore and Saranac are situated near tributary crossings like Corners Brook and Ryans Brook. The terrain is marked by notable peaks, including Burnt Hill and Russia Mtn, which frame the valley’s development around water power and institutional land use.
