    Built around the 1930s, this kiln was used by the inhabitants of the village of Chez Jaguenaud until around 1945.
    Its operation was used to "fire" clay, transformed into hollow tiles, as well as stone. Quicklime was thus collected from it, a material used by the region's farmers. Purchased by the municipality in 1999, it was restored and rebuilt identically to preserve this small piece of heritage. Its landscaped surroundings make it a remarkable attraction. A nearby parking lot allows visitors to linger.
