ROCHESTER — A new cupola was raised onto the Fulton County Historical Society’s round barn Tuesday, Feb. 9.

The Amish crew built the cupola inside the round barn, then used a crane to lift it into place. Donations to help pay for rebuilding the round barn are needed. A tornado Aug. 3, 2015, took the roof off the round barn and damaged three other historic buildings: Log  cabin; 1912 Kewanna jail and 1900 Athens cider mill.

People wishing to donate can send checks to Fulton County Historical Society, 37 E. CR 375N, Rochester IN 46975. FCHS is a 501.C.3, non-profit and donations are tax-deductible.
