In the summer of 2021, the more than 300-year-old Silke beech tree fell apart. The fascinating thing, however, is that not all parts have died. Some branches live on and sprout again every spring. And this is still a very special place. In May 2023 it was also completely free to access.

We were at Silke Buche on September 2, 2021, which at that time had completely collapsed. It's a shame, but that's how things work. A detour there is still worthwhile.
