The rooms of which it consists are:

• Sala del pan: where you talk about the architecture, the history and the stories of this oven and its people.

• Audiovisual Room: An enveloping audiovisual is projected on the walls and in the extraordinary dome of the oven, the tireless work of the baker, who kneads his bread night after night.

• Folklore Hall: Rounds, rondallas, traditional dances and sounds come together in this room for the visitor to get to know and enjoy the rich folklore of Molina de Segura.

• Sala del Pozo: the well, meeting point of the traditional houses of the garden.
