Abstract
An oven door includes a transparent zone defined by a window pack and an additional piece of glass arranged in front of the window pack. Specifically, the additional piece of glass is mounted at an angle to the panes of the window pack, with the angled glass diverging farther from the window pack at an upper section than at a lower section. Through mounting the angled piece of glass in the door as set forth above, a chimney effect is established for heat conducted through the door such that an attainable temperature at a front surface of the door is significantly reduced.
