Interesting, in Northern Russia they also had no chimneys up until the beginning of the 20th century (in other places, chimneys were introduced much earlier). They also called it "black heating".
How common was it in Medieval Europe?
- dan-robertson 2y agoProbably depends a lot on the house/roof. If you have a thatched roof you probably didn’t really need a chimney because the roof would be permeable enough.
