The Burr Oak Savings Bank, also known as the Burr Oak Post Office, is a free-standing, single-story brick building in Burr Oak, Iowa, built in 1910 in the Italianate style. Its main decorative feature is a panel of corbeled brickwork in a dentil-like pattern beneath a bracketed tin cornice. After the bank closed, it housed a barber shop and the post office, and since 2014 it has served as the Visitors Center for the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum and Park. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
