Rammegaard
Rammegaard is a manor house and estate situated southwest of Lemvig, between Nissum Fjord and Nissum Bredning (Nissum broad), in northwest Jutland, Denmark. From 1681 until 1798 the estate was owned by the Barons of Rysensteen but was not part of the barony. The current main building is from 1916. Rammedige, a 410 m long protected defensive rampart, is situated close to the manor house. It is said to date from a conflict with king Angul. History From the late 15th century it was owned by several generations of the family Spend, and after 1586 the Skram family. Especially in the period 1637-1661 the estates economy was in poor shape as the rivalries between Denmark and Sweden sent armies fighting and plundering over the land. In 1682 the estate was sold to Baron Christian Juul of Rysensteen in whose family (see Henrik Rysensteen) it remained until 1798, although no baron ever lived at Rammegaard. In 1798 the estate and manor was auctioned to two individuals (Peter Severin Fønss ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Hip Roof
A hip roof, hip-roof or hipped roof, is a type of roof where all sides slope downwards to the walls, usually with a fairly gentle slope (although a tented roof by definition is a hipped roof with steeply pitched slopes rising to a peak). Thus, a hipped roof has no gables or other vertical sides to the roof. A square hip roof is shaped like a pyramid. Hip roofs on houses may have two triangular sides and two trapezoidal ones. A hip roof on a rectangular plan has four faces. They are almost always at the same pitch or slope, which makes them symmetrical about the centerlines. Hip roofs often have a consistent level fascia, meaning that a gutter can be fitted all around. Hip roofs often have dormer slanted sides. Construction Hip roofs are more difficult to construct than a gabled roof, requiring more complex systems of rafters or trusses. Hip roofs can be constructed on a wide variety of plan shapes. Each ridge is central over the rectangle of the building below it. The t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Avant-corps
An ''avant-corps'' ( it, avancorpo or , plural , german: Risalit, pl, ryzalit), a French term literally meaning "fore-body", is a part of a building, such as a porch or pavilion, that juts out from the ''corps de logis'', often taller than other parts of the building. It is common in façades in French Baroque architecture. Particularly in German architecture, a corner ''Risalit'' is where two wings meet at right-angles. Baroque three-winged constructions often incorporate a median ''Risalit'' in a main hall or a stairwell, such as in Weißenstein Palace Weißenstein ( sl, Bilšak) is a town in the district of Villach-Land in the Austrian state of Carinthia.

Cornice
In architecture, a cornice (from the Italian ''cornice'' meaning "ledge") is generally any horizontal decorative moulding that crowns a building or furniture element—for example, the cornice over a door or window, around the top edge of a pedestal, or along the top of an interior wall. A simple cornice may be formed just with a crown, as in crown moulding atop an interior wall or above kitchen cabinets or a bookcase. A projecting cornice on a building has the function of throwing rainwater free of its walls. In residential building practice, this function is handled by projecting gable ends, roof eaves and gutters. However, house eaves may also be called "cornices" if they are finished with decorative moulding. In this sense, while most cornices are also eaves (overhanging the sides of the building), not all eaves are usually considered cornices. Eaves are primarily functional and not necessarily decorative, while cornices have a decorative aspect. A building's projecti ...

Dentil
A dentil (from Lat. ''dens'', a tooth) is a small block used as a repeating ornament in the bedmould of a cornice. Dentils are found in ancient Greek and Roman architecture, and also in later styles such as Neoclassical, Federal, Georgian Revival, Greek Revival, Renaissance Revival, Second Empire, and Beaux-Arts architecture. Dentillation refers to use of a course of dentils. History Origin The Roman architect Vitruvius (iv. 2) states that the dentil represents the end of a rafter (''asser''). It occurs in its most pronounced form in the Ionic temples of Asia Minor, the Lycian tombs and the porticoes and tombs of Persia, where it clearly represents the reproduction in stone of timber construction. The earliest example is found carved into the rock of the tomb of Darius, c. 500 BC, reproducing the portico of his palace. Its first employment in Athens is in the cornice of the caryatid portico of the Erechtheum (480 BC). When subsequently introduced into the bed-mould of the corn ...
