Wheeler-Magnus Round Barn, Round barn in Arlington Heights, Illinois, US.

The Wheeler-Magnus Round Barn features wooden construction with a diameter of 50 feet and includes a central silo for grain storage.

Built in 1910, this agricultural structure represents a period when circular barn designs gained popularity among Midwest farmers for their space efficiency.

The structure stands as the sole round barn in Cook County listed in the National Register of Historic Places, documenting regional farming methods.

The circular design of the barn maximizes interior space utilization, allowing farmers to store equipment and house livestock in an efficient layout.

Located within a retirement community, this wooden round barn maintains its original structural elements from the early twentieth century.
