stove building workshop


As we arrived in Clos du Doubs, we met Krishan an old and wise clay-oven-builder.
He was there visiting Niccolas and build with him the new oven for the upstairs-rooms.
The oven should be used to heat the upper rooms and for baking food and drying fruits.
We came totally to the right time,
they already build up the fundament for the oven and made some skizzen,
but they already were at the beginning.
Some of us were very interested in learning how to build an oven made of pure nature clay and sand.
so we started to help them to build up the oven brick by brick.
While building up Krishan told us about ovens and we learned in practical way.
In the evenings he gave us lessons in oven-building-theorie and how he started to build up clay-ovens.

Here you can find an instruction for building the oven that we built:
