Well-made ground monument lime kiln with an explanatory display board. Lime burning is an old and special building trade and required a certain amount of knowledge. The village masons and farmers used to burn the lime themselves, the kiln is often built into a slope.

Ground monument for burning lime. Lime burning is an old, non-profit building culture. It was a special construction trade and required some knowledge, which was handed down and implemented by the individual families. The village masons and farmers used to burn the lime itself. The stove is often built into a slope for better insulation and stability so that only the stove breast with the snout (fire and hole) is exposed.
