Menno Yoder Polygonal Barn
The Menno Yoder barn is on the outskirts of Shipshewana, Indiana. It is one of the state's two remaining poured concrete polygonal barn. Built in 1908 by Menno Yoder this twelve-sided barn has been expanded upon. It is known as the Brown Swiss Dairy barn. A gravel drive extends to the barn, passing the 1911 concrete farmhouse. The polygonal barn consists of the original 1908 twelve-sided barn, a 1911 attached silo, a c.1920 rectangular addition, and a 1960s one story addition. Next to the barn is a free standing c.1950 milk house.〔Menno Yoder Polygonal Barn, 93000191; National Register of Historic Places Inventory – Nomination Form; US Dept of the Interior, National Park Service; Washington, D.C.; April 1993〕
Cultivated fields lie to the south and west.〔

The twelve-sided, two-storied structure has a two pitch sectional gambrel with a metal aerator at the top. The one story 1960s barn is on the northwest side and has a gambrel roof that covers the gap between the polygonal barn and the two-story c.1920 barn behind. The two-story c.1920 barn is on the southwest side and has a shallow pitch gable roof, which wraps around the twelve-sided barn. A small rectangular addition on the south side of the two-story barn was erected in c.1960. The rectangular c.1920 barn is two stories tall.〔
All roofs are metal and feature slight overhanging eaves and exposed rafters. Walls of the polygonal barn are of poured concrete, which were never painted or finished. The c.1920 barn has vertical wood sided walls, and the c.1960 barn has glazed block walls. All foundations are of concrete.〔
