An ointment oven was formerly used for the production of cart ointments and tar oils. The resinous logs were heated so much that the resin leaked out and was subsequently processed. Until the 19th century, there was a large number of such sage-baking ovens around here in the woods.

On the Tonbachsteig you will come across two ointment ovens. Next to it is a detailed information board showing everything that was made with the oven at the time.
