A Sailing ship weathervane found in a Lisbon building on Rua Alexandre Herculano.
The weathervane is made of iron and depicts a sailing ship on the water. Contrarly to other weathervanes this one presents a crenelated shape. The front of the ship shows the wind direction and the letters of the cardinal points can be seen bellow on a circle representing water (watch the closer pictures and S for south and O for "Oeste"/West can easily be seen). It´s placed on the top of the building.
