Abstract

German
In einer Lehmgrube auf der Hochfläche des Vorderhunsrücks wird Lehm in alter Weise zu Feldbrandziegeln verarbeitet. Nach dem Trocknen der handgeformten Rohziegel werden diese zu einem mit Kohlekanälen und -schichten durchsetzten, außen mit Lehm abgedichteten Feldbrandofen aufgesetzt und gebrannt. Nach dem Erkalten wird der Ofen aufgebrochen; die sortierten Ziegel werden abgefahren.

In a loam pit on the plateau of the anterior Hunsrück the loam is made into bricks after the old fashion: After drying the handmoulded, unfinished bricks, they are piled up into an open-air-oven, interspersed with channels and layers of coal, externally covered with loam, and burnt. After cooling, the oven is broken open: the sorted bricks are transported away.
