Original elements
Forn Sarret preserves many original details from the period, such as the revolving stone oven, where artisan bread is still baked today, or the wooden drawers where the dough is fermented. The shop window and the entrance maintain the original wood and modernist stained glass, but have undergone some changes: the leaded glass sign has been lost, which is now printed. In the center, between the two entrance doors, there is a large ceramic medallion with the image of a woman reaping wheat. Inside, you can still see a painting with the name of the business in modernist characters.
The oven occupies the ground floor of a building from 1866, the work of Felip Ubach, author, among others, of the old Ricart factory in Raval in Barcelona.
