I found this chimney by accident. I walked those streets so many times and for some reason the chimney was never spotted. But now it was different.

It's a strange place: apparently it used to be a bakery, as a baker shop in the opposite end of the building seems to prove. Besides, there was a window ajar and I took a look... in the darkness it pretty much looked like an old bakery to me. Now, the intriguing part is that the small structure which probably was the bakery is attached to a fancy old house, very stylish, probably from the early 20th Century. I mean, it's not likely that a baker would become the owner of a small palace, and also, not likely that the owner of a small palace would like to see a bakery on his backyard (literally). Mystery....
