Experience iron smelting as it was in the Iron Age

Long before the start of iron ore smelting in blast furnaces, iron ore was reduced using the racing furnace process. The aim of a project group from Holthausen Grammar School in Hattingen is to bring to life how physically demanding it was to produce malleable raw iron from iron ore in the period of history known as the Iron Age.

Beautiful, but only in the dark of night will the blue carbon monoxide flame be visible to the naked eye.
