An owl sign is a triangular, vertical upright partition that is created by trapezoidal truncation of the triangular end shield of a hipped roof. This triangular wooden board was used for ventilation (opening) and to protect the barn against splashing. Church and little owls can fly in and out through the hole. The oldest archival entry is from 1669.
