What is a "trumeau"?
A trumeau is a vertical architectural element found between two openings, such as doors or windows, in a wall. It typically serves as a support for the structure above while adding decorative detail to the space. Trumeaus can be plain or elaborately carved, often featuring designs or sculptures that enhance the overall appearance of the building. They are commonly found in classical and medieval architecture, particularly in churches and cathedrals, where they can provide both structural support and artistic expression.
