Really enjoyed this video. I love history and barns. Living in the south I’ve never been in a round barn but what a privilege that would be!!! It’s so sad to lose so much of our history…God bless everyone!!!
This is Beautifully produced, Historical Documentary, about these unique Round Barns ❗️ THANK YOU for making this Documentary available to watch & enjoy.
Thank you for sharing with us, this wonderful example of the history of the round barn. I have only seen them in pictures. The one that was a wedding venue and the one that was the club house for the golfers, were mighty impressive. Thank you again.
My serendipitous find of the week! I really have no idea how I happened upon this wonderfully-made production, but it was among my best hours of viewing time. I was unaware of these structures and their unique qualities, but am so delighted to learn about the people and circumstances that bred them. AND--I'm very thankful to those who have preserved these great examples for us to appreciate today. Nice folk, them Hoosiers...
6:47 Scientific Revolution encouraging thoughts of efficiency, yield, and optimization - Drove interest in simplicity of form. Less expensive, more space, stronger construction.
The biggest problem is the state and county keep making you pay property tax on them whether you use them or not. So in the end just knocking them down makes much more sense than costly repairs. If you make one nice, they up the tax bill. I've been through it with a couple old barns that were beautiful but sadly not economical to keep.
Benton Steel did NOT invent the self supporting roof.That system was used to construct the dome at St.Pauls cathedral in England many years beforehand.
@@silentvoiceinthedark5665 They got mistaken for people from India but the people naming the state didn't think north America was India at that point, they named it after the natives who they called Indians who lived there. I mean by that logic any word that has two or more meanings can be used interchangeably without regard for intent.
@@kkknotcool uh, yes thank you for that, already know that. Still bears the name cant argue with that. It is what it is and the chain of events has to start somewhere
@@silentvoiceinthedark5665 It bears the name but that's not what you said. You said it was named after a country. Which is wasn't it was named after a group of people who have nothing to do with the country and only happen to have the same name as the country.
My Uncle has a barn in Wisconsin, cleaned it up and rents it for weddings. I know at one time he had every weekend booked all summer, made a lot of $$$. Now if young men were wise they wouldn’t make such a foolish commitment with the State and fickle modern women :(
Very interesting. I’m 49. As a kid we spent so much time playing in our barn. My friends now live in one.Haaa
Thank you

I love these round barns & I wish there were more built now..
The thoughtfulness of how they built the interior for animals & their food..
There’s a few round barns up in Vermont I noticed over the years. Nice and informative video.Thanks

JACKSON COUNTY FAIR . BUT THEY ALSO HAVE ROUND BARNS
Benton Steel did NOT invent the self supporting roof.That system was used to construct the dome at St.Pauls cathedral in England many years beforehand.
For the round building, that cathedral is not round.
Thank you what a neat video. I enjoyed that.
No mention of the shape being better to withstand high winds
Do any young people care about history or the past?
+1 right here :-)
I care, but I'm fairly sure I no longer count as young.
No this youth today doesn't have the depth to honor any history nor respect anything Just little dummies. 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
It takes SO much money.
In case you haven’t noticed your generation did the same
Indiana is the only state named after a country
I thought it meant Indian. Like native American.
@@kkknotcool And how and where did the native Americans get that name?

Aninteresting history. Thank-you!
