    The building was once accommodation next to a charcoal burner's pit. Many remains of these old charcoal burners, where charcoal was once produced, can still be found on the island.

    The charcoal burners used kilns to carbonize wood in an airless environment. The charcoal was used for cooking, heating, and in metallurgy. The charcoal burners' lives were hard, but charcoal burning played an important role in Mallorca's economy.

    Today, most of the charcoal burners are abandoned, but they remain a reminder of the island's history.
