Tips
A 700 year old sycamore (Ficus sycomorus) grows on the square in front of the church / mosque. The mulberry fig tree from North Africa was probably planted for inauguration. It is one of the last 7 copies in the world. And there is only the female variant. Therefore, according to today's assessment, this species will soon no longer exist.
