El forn de can Torró
The lime kiln of Can Torró- In 2017, a traditional lime kiln was carried out, in the can Torró oven, in the Fonteta district. The idea came from the ceramist Josep Matés, who together with a large number of volunteers started all the tasks necessary to carry out this work. There were only a few men left in the area who had worked in a lime kiln or who had seen them work, and thanks to their experience it was possible to move forward and rediscover a process that has already disappeared from our regions.- ONLY AVAILABLE IN ORIGINAL CATALAN VERSION
CATALÀ- El 2017 es va dur a terme una cuita tradicional de calç, al forn de can Torró, al terme de Fonteta. La idea va ser del ceramista Josep Matés, que junt amb una gran quantitat de voluntaris van iniciar totes les tasques necessàries per a realitzar aquest treball. Només quedaven a la zona pocs homes que havíen treballat en algun forn de calç o que els havíen vist funcionar, i gràcies a la seva experiència es va poder anar avançant i redescobrint un procés que ja ha desaparegut de les nostres contrades.
