Octagonal Barn:
Originally
located
off Middle
Ridge
Road, this
unique
Octagonal
Barn was
disassembled,
moved
and
rebuilt
using
Amish and
Society
volunteers.
Like many
other
historic
buildings
at the
Sandstone
Museum
Center,
this barn
was
threatened
with
demolition.
One of
approximately
twelve in
the entire
state, the
Society's
Octagonal
Barn is
actually a
carriage
house. The
top floor
was used
to store
hay, oats
and other
supplies.
