The unique octagon shaped building is a treasure to the Minnedosa Heritage Village. This historic display building is one of only two left in Manitoba and was donated to the village by the local Agricultural Society for restoration.
After sitting on a loose stone foundation at the Minnedosa Agricultural Grounds for over one hundred years, the building was in dire need of repair to save it from collapsing in on itself. The building has been saved and has been restored back to its former glory. New cedar shakes have been installed on the roof, and windows have been installed in the old window openings that were closed in back in the 1940’s or 1950’s. The exterior restoration was completed in 2008, interior and landscaping in 2009.
The octagon display building has been designated a heritage site and is a gem of the Heritage Village.
