The Elias and Lisi Aho Farmstead (Шаблон:IPAc-en) is a historic farmstead in Waasa Township, Minnesota, United States. It was established by a Finnish immigrant family and includes five surviving buildings constructed with traditional Finnish log architecture from 1902 to 1907.[1] The farm was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990 for its state-level significance in the themes of agriculture, architecture, and European ethnic heritage.[2] The Aho Farmstead was nominated for reflecting the successful cultivation of northeastern Minnesota's cutover forests by Finnish American settlers and their use of traditional log architecture.[1]

Description

The historic district consists of six contributing properties, all dating to between 1902 and 1907. Five are log buildings: the house, the main barn, a smaller cattle barn, a riihi (grain-drying barn) later used as a stable, and a smoke sauna. The sixth contributing property comprises the fields east of the farmstead, which were first cleared by the Aho family during the same timeframe.[1]
