A tree was pulled out of the water in Lake Werratal near Eschwege near Kassel. As it turns out now, the oak is more than 5000 years old.

The tree trunk was picked up for conservation on the last weekend of April 2022.
Unfortunately, it can no longer be admired here on site.
It is not yet clear where the tree trunk will be set up and exhibited at a later date.
