Round barns were hard to find even in their day, now they are getting downright rare in Indiana. This one is is in good shape but as of 2012 it does need some paint and repairs. Hopefully it will receive them and remain a waymark for others to enjoy for years to come.
The barn is located just of the road and easy to see. It looks to have 17 or more sides to form the "round" of being a round barn. This was quite unusual to have this many even for a round barn. Most did not have nearly this many.
Construction: Combination
Is this a 'working' barn?: Abandoned (empty)
