    In 1904 the large shaft furnace was built by Alois, Anton and Franz - all sons of Franz Reinagl. At that time it was one of the largest of its type in Central Europe. In 1926 the facility was purchased by Count Ernst Hoyos-Sprintzenstein and converted from coal to wood burning.

    The firing process required around 9m³ of wood and 3m³ of stones to achieve a firing temperature of 2000°C. This then burned for 36 hours to extract around 3 tons of lime. The limestone was placed in the kiln and the result was said slaked lime.
