      At the beginning of the 19th century, the Büdinger-Ysenburg princely house was politically on Napoleon's side and also took part in wars with small contingents on his side. Napoleon was known for laying dead straight avenues and planting chestnuts and poplars along the avenues. The straight paths and rows of trees in the Büdinger Forest, which can be found in some places, are to be understood as a homage to Napoleon.

        Very unusual, an artificially planted series.
