Here is a very old hat oak, which is about 850 years old.

Hat trees have a large trunk circumference, a spreading crown and usually a high age. They attract attention, especially when they are exposed. Often they also document local history.

Through the cultivation of the coppice forest with simultaneous forest grazing the emergence of hat trees was promoted, today they are often marked as rare relics as natural monuments and protected. The lower nature conservation authority has not declared this tree a natural monument, because he is in the final stages of his life.
