The Round Barn, Bruce Township Section 6 was located in Bruce Township, Benton County, Iowa, United States. It was built in 1914 as a general purpose barn.[2] The building was a true round barn that measured 60 feet (18 m) in diameter.[3] The barn was constructed of clay tile from the Johnston Brothers' Clay Works and it featured a conical roof. The structure did not have a cupola, but there was a silo that rose from the center. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1986.[1]

The barn has subsequently been torn down.[3] It was removed from the NRHP in 2019.[4]
