The Karnes Stone Barn, near Carbondale in Osage County, Kansas, is a barn built in 1877. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]

It was built for George R. Bronson, a circus man. It is a limestone structure which is 80 by 50 feet (24 m × 15 m) in plan and 30 feet (9.1 m) tall.[2]

It apparently was originally built to hold a circus; it was later used as a milking barn.[2]
