Drawing of the oven taken from a work by Paul Deschamps.
The oven discovered in the west hall of the Krak in 1928 dates from the second half of the 13th century and was not part of the early castle. It was five meters in diameter with a cul-de-four vault and a masonry chimney directly below an opening in the hall vault.
