A pair of historic tiled stoves from the 19th century have been preserved on the 1st floor of the Krásná rectory. With regard to their exceptional heritage value, a plan was prepared for their restoration, along with the addition of the previously demolished stove and tiled stove on the ground floor. The first of the pair of stoves is a corner classicist stove on the base of an isosceles triangle from the 19th century. The stove is creamy white, simple, flat, decorated with a central relief "tile" with the motif of a woman with a distaff with a girl at her feet and a man with a dagger at his waist. The extension is separated from the base by a cordon cornice. The stoker door and ashtray form a single cast-iron shield. The stove will be restored and electric heating will be added.
The second stove is a 19th century tiled stove. The 7-tiered tiled stove with two chapels is closed at the front by a perforated ceramic tiled grid. The stove is divided into segments, creamy white glaze. The ornament is a figural and interwoven relief, a simple, linearly profiled, crown cornice in the middle part concave into an arch. The stoking is done through a profiled cast steel door with a ceramic knob. A simple, retractable, doorless, copper sheet serves as an ashtray. The condition of the stove is such that even after restoration it will not be possible to heat it with wood. An internal electric heater for the tiled stove will be used for heating.
On the ground floor, in the large room of the rectory, the previously demolished tiled stove and stove will be reconstructed. The stove will be equipped with a contemporary biofireplace for wood with high efficiency and thus minimal polluting flue gas extraction.
The great unknown was the motif on the relief of the stove. In cooperation with experts from the Institute of Monuments, the motif of the stove was revealed. The girl sitting on the ground spinning is Isolde, Tristan stands to her right. The lady in the background is Brangain, Isolde's chambermaid. It is therefore a depiction of an old Celtic legend.
The tiled stove will be restored as part of the reconstruction of the rectory and, together with the loans of Oybinské tiles from the excavations at the entrance to the castle and monastery, will complete 4 stories about a journey through another story.
