Friedrich Holdermann was a wealthy Heidelberg citizen and innkeeper. In addition to the White Bear at Kettengasse 19, he owned the Heldische Bierhaus and the Holdermannsche Kaffeehaus on Hauptstraße 124-126 on Ludwigsplatz, today Universitätsplatz. 1764 he is said to have shot himself at the oak.

Hiking

Beautiful spiral old tree. However, the trunk is already quite hollow - healthy looks different.

Mountain biking

Ascent from Ziegelhausen on the White Stone over the asphalt road - then via Jagdhausweg and Mausbachweg (S0-S1) down to Ziegelhausen. Nice trail
