Meridian is a village in Cayuga County, New York, United States.
The Meridian Baptist Church, at the eastern edge of the village, was founded in 1810.
A number of houses and other buildings of spectacular architectural styling, in varying conditions of preservation, grace the village.
Theodore Ruggles Timby, inventor of the revolving turret used on the USS Monitor during the Civil War, lived in Meridian from at least 1839 until he left in the fall of 1855.
His residence still stands on the west side of Bonta Bridge Road, south of the center of the village.
