The Hammer barn is important for its connection to local agriculture. The barn is a great example of bank barns in Kansas at the beginning of the 18th century, and it allowed livestock to be stored in the barn as well as wagons of hay. The Hammer barn is one of the last remaining pieces of agricultural history in the area and is a great example of the agricultural history in Johnson Co.
