Cupola
The magnificent cupola – what exactly is it?
The cupola is a wonderful architectural accent that looks a little like a small bell tower or farmyard barn. It attaches to the pinnacle or top point of a building, and serves to safely ventilate the room below it. Nowadays though, it is also used to provide a secure structural point in which you can anchor your weathervane.
A cupola and weathervane combination: a sure winner!
Anchoring your weathervane into this structure will provide you with all of the necessary stability that you may require for your weathervane. It will also elevate your weathervane above other structures, which means that the pointer will always deliver accurate readings. Aside from the practical functions, this combination will also look really stylish, so it is the perfect addition to any home.
How is it suited to house a weathervane?
Inside of the wooden structure there is a specific mounting piece that is specially designed so that a standard weathervane can simply slot in securely. This means that you do not have to mount the weathervane directly onto your roof.
