Cows aren’t super tall, nor is the occasional tractor. Why do barns often have roofs three stories high?

    Barns usually have a mezzanine or a second floor for storage. At least the ones I’ve seen have never been tall but empty.

      That’s the hay loft. Probably more so on older barns, but that’s where the term is from.
