Henry and Millie Westergreen Barn

Henry and Millie Westergreen Barn, 19871 Spruce Ave, Keosauqua, 6 miles north of Bentonsport

A large gambrel cattle barn built during World War I at the southeast corner of what was then a 600-acre farm. The parcel was put together by a grain merchant in Cedar Rapids, but the Westergreens were the first owners to live on site.  Framed in an unusually elaborate manner to hold together the wide spread of the gable, it retains its hay trolley track just under the ridge.
