The flow of water was stopped completely over both falls
on March 29th 1848 due to an ice jam in the upper river for several hours. This
is the only known time to have occurred. The Falls did not actually freeze
over, but the flow was stopped to the point where people actually walked out
and recovered artifacts from the riverbed!

The Niagara Falls have never completely frozen over. However, on March 29th, 1848, the water flow was completely stopped over both falls due to an ice jam in the upper river. Falling water and mist will freeze and ice bridges will form over the falls giving the appearance of frozen falls, but the water underneath is still flowing. Below is a very interesting website about Niagara Falls.
