The Waveland Round Barn was a historic building located near Cushing in rural Ida County, Iowa, United States. Built in 1900, the barn measured 50 feet (15 m) in diameter.[2] It featured red vertical siding, a large central section with a conical roof, a wing section that surrounded the central section with a sectional roof and a hay dormer above the main entrance on the east side. The three-story central section makes this an unusual round barn in Iowa.[3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] The barn was bulldozed and the remains were burnt in March 2012.[2]
