Community bread ovens : in the Region Dents du Midi

A vestige of a time when several neighbourhoods of the village had their own bread oven, a few local enthusiasts have restored this ancient centuries-old oven in order to perpetuate the tradition and continue to allow both residents and visitors to enjoy it.

The Collaire bread oven was built around 1435. This is where the bread was baked for the Troistorrents church congregation, especially during the feast of the Pentecost. Today a private association is in the process of restoring this historic building.

The Propéraz community bread oven, built in 1663, was used several times a year to bake large batches of bread for local inhabitants and passing guests.
