Rooster Weathervane
The traditional rooster weathervane, secure in his perch
The rooster weathervane tradition spans many hundreds of years back to the days of a former pope who declared that every church should have a rooster vane in remembrance of the apostle Peter. Since then the popularity of the weathervane has spread from churches to homes, schools and other buildings all across the world!

Where to put your new weathervane
When purchasing your new weathervane it is important to bear in mind where you would like to install it.

Once you have this place in mind, you can purchase the relevant mounting apparatus or cupola structure.
