The central feature of the "Round Barn Farm," this red brick round barn (one of only two round barns in Oklahoma) is part of an agricultural museum on this working farm. The barn, which is 68 feet in diameter, is used mainly for events such as weddings and reunions. For details please see the Round Barn Farm Facebook Page. According to this news article the builder, Marvin Bules, thinks that round barns were common a hundred years ago. He says he built this round barn to better withstand the Oklahoma wind.
