Murtoa is the site of the largest rustically-built structure in the world, the Murtoa No. 1 Grain Store, known locally as the "Stick Shed". Because wheat could not be exported during the Second World War, a "temporary" grain shed, 270m long and 60m wide, was built in late 1941 and early 1942, using 560 un-milled mountain tree trunks. These "sticks", braced with iron tie rods, are set in a concrete floor and support a hipped corrugated iron roof. The impressive cathedral-like structure was last used to hold wheat in 1989-90.

As support for this he points to the common practice of the Conquistadors appropriating local terminology. Charanguista Ernesto Cavour disagrees, and tends to support the second origin, maintaining that the word “charango” comes from a mispronunciation of the Spanish word “charanga”, meaning "brass band" (a reasonable corollary to 'military music played on wind instruments').Long Live the Charango! One of the most complete contemporary statements on the origin of the term "charango" appears in the introduction to Duran and Pedrotti's, Charango Method, ostensibly the first complete, bilingual charango method to be published: :"Charango" in an Ibero-American colonial term that refers to a series of Spanish-American cultural concepts related to "noise" and rustically constructed objects.

His preoccupation with existential problems of farmers, highlanders, miners is visible in the structures of extraordinary expressive force, achieved by a specific manner of procession, more with forceful cuts in the wood by an axe than by a sculptor’s chisel. Led by a strong instinct and robust character, he processed the wood rustically, transmitting his raw energy into a wooden mass, emphasizing a predominant force of a man – highlander, who seizes from the nature in his fight for survival. In his sculptures with multiplied figures, central figures or events are rare. While doing sculpture Aleksić liberates a thought, not a tale, hence the intensity of expression is most pronounced in the mere procedure of cutting, quick and capricious, in order to make his idea visible as soon as possible.

It was the first emergency bulk wheat storage shed built in Victoria and is the only one remaining of its type in Australia. Wartime shortages meant the builders had to rely upon and adapt traditional bush construction techniques. It’s claimed to be the largest “rustically-built” structure in the world. The Forests Commission Victoria (FCV) produced over half a million lineal feet of poles from State forests mainly for emergency storage of wheat in 1941/42. FCV Annual Report 1941--42 > “Poles and piles were in heavy demand throughout the year, and in view of > the shortage of private operators an increasingly large quantity was > supplied direct by the Commission's organization. The poles were for use for > all purposes and included large quantities for the erection of emergency > storage sheds and for special purposes to meet requirements of the Army and > Air Force. Large numbers of the poles were supplied in lengths ranging from > 60 feet to 100 feet, and in one case two 120-ft.

Pyramidal form made of rustically processed stone in the Pioneers` park in Belgrade, based on its widely spread belief, represents the replica of the observation post of the Serbian Army from Kajmakčalan, from the Salonika frontDocumentation of the Cultural Heritage Protection Institute of the City of Belgrade that is, the observation post of the High Command of the Serbian Army from the Salonika front, which was located on Jelak, on the Moglen mountain, from where the regent Aleksandar Karađorđević and the commander in chief Živojin Mišić and the members of his headquarters watched the battle on the day of the breakthrough of the Salonika front, on 15 September 1918. Allegedly, the observation post was moved to Belgrade in 1928. There are other records too, which identify this structure as the imitation of the Grotto cave, built during the reign of King Milan Obrenović, which served in a decorative purpose. The third sources state that the construction was built as a belvedere, after the First World War, during the reign of King Aleksandar.
