Taylor County Round Barn, 1001 Pollock Blvd, Bedford (Taylor County) – At the intersection of IA 2 and IA 148.
Round barn was built by the Cameron family in 1907 near Lenox, originally used for storage and horses. They donated it to Taylor County Historical Society, who moved it to the museum grounds in 1988. It is 64 feet in diameter and 55 feet in height. Round barns are very rare and are built for efficiency of space and to withstand harsh Iowa weather.
