The Arcadia Round Barn is a landmark and tourist attraction on historic U.S. Route 66 in Arcadia, Oklahoma. It was built in 1898 by a local farmer, William Harrison Odor. He used native bur oak boards soaked while green and forced into the curved shape needed for the walls and roof rafters. The idea in building a round barn was a curved surface would catch less wind, compared to a flat surface, and indeed the barn has stood the test of time. A second level was incorporated for use as a community gathering place for dances and other social activities. The dome created great acoustics for music.In the 1920's the newly commissioned Route 66 was aligned through the town, passing beside the Round Barn. In June 1924, a fire in Arcadia destroyed most of the business district, but left the barn intact. In 1987 Edmond incorporated the town of Arcadia. The Round Barn is a beautiful landmark on Route 66 and a vivid part of our local history.
