University of Wisconsin Dairy Barn
University of Wisconsin Dairy Barn, Historic barn at University of Wisconsin-Madison, United States
The building features a gambrel roof design, concrete floors, and extensive ventilation systems to support dairy operations and research activities.
Built in 1897, the Dairy Barn housed experiments by Stephen Babcock from 1907 to 1911, leading to advances in cattle nutrition studies.
The Dairy Barn stands as a symbol of Wisconsin's agricultural education traditions and the state's leadership in dairy farming development.
The facility contains specialized areas for livestock housing, a classroom for stock judging, and dedicated spaces for milk processing and storage.
The complex includes six interconnected buildings, with a main structure measuring 86 by 50 feet along Linden Avenue in Madison.
