Old Swiss tile stove

Only a coupla hundred years old. But it still works! Or so I was told. Apparently it takes a long time to heat up.

Funny though. In the little door you see there are cushions. Those get warm from the stove and you can take them into the bed for heating. How extremely old-fashioned! But nice. And I was indeed told that the cushions were new, not from when the house was built. Phew!
