Cupola
- Governer
The Governor
Wood cedar cupolas come in all types of styles,
from the traditional to the truly unique cupolas
that will add grace and elegance to your rooftop.The
Governor Cupolas also come with a copper or
aluminum roof and are triangular tipped up
in design. They are vented to allow air to
escape.
The
word cupola comes from the Latin
meaning of “little cupo” or little
dome, but we are familiar with the
wonderful wooden cupolas or American
barns or stables and the elegant
cupolas on most public buildings.
In fact, installing cupolas atop
a barn allows continual air to dry
the hay stored high in the barn.
Old Yankee farmers referred to cupolas
as “a roof over a hole in the roof.”
