The Round barn was built in 1898 by William Odor and J.H. Keely. The town of Arcadia was founded by Odor and other landowners in 1902 after the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad was built to the south of the barn. A dirt road designated as State Highway 7 was built between the barn and the railroad tracks in 1914, and in 1926 the still-unpaved road became U.S. Highway 66.
The barn is located six miles east of Interstate 35 on historical Route 66 and is open every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free but donations are accepted for the maintenance of the barn. Visit www.arcadiaroundbarn.com for more information.
The Windmill Shops are located 1 block east of the Round Barn in Arcadia.
