LOW GROUND FLOOR


The kitchen
The focal point of the kitchen is a large white tile stove, built at the beginning of the 20th century. It consists of a firebox and a large cooking plate. It is flanked by two hot air stoves on one side, and with a little copper warm water tank with a tap on the other. Of interest is the smoke vent system with a pipe running under the kitchen floor towards the wall where it connects to a vertical chimney. There is also a bread oven in the corner. The adjacent room served as a pantry where groceries were stored.

The Dungeon
The dungeon is situated in the basement of the western tower. In there You can see one of the torture devices, the so called “pillory”: in order to force the prisoner to confess, or to punish the offender, his wrists and neck were locked in place in the holes of the pillory.
