The Anhalt Barn is a historic barn in rural eastern Logan County, Arkansas. It is located west of New Blaine, near the junction of Old Military and Artesian Well Roads. It is a 1-1/2 story timber frame structure, with a gabled roof and a tall fieldstone foundation. It is laid out as a double crib with a central drive. It was built in 1878 by George Henry Anhalt, a German immigrant, and is the only known barn in the county that has construction based on German barn-building principles.[2]

The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
