Image description: 
This house represents a medieval style of building with its open-hearth (¿re), smoke vent and fixed furnishings, including built-in benches along three walls. A bed is placed in each corner next to the doors. Because of their great width these beds appear shorter than they actually are, but short, wide beds were the norm.
