The life of this old oak began around 1000 AD, making it one of the oldest holm oaks in Germany. It grew slowly under extremely adverse conditions on eruptive basalt, on limestone, sedimentary and depositional rock from the Ice Age.
The former Federal President Carstens supported the restoration of the old holm oak. Now we can be happy that it is back in full leaf in the windswept mountain depression, the gateway to the Grabfeldgau, in the foothills of the Thuringian Mountains, in the nearby area of the Long Mountains, the Kleiner and Großer Gleichberg.
