Here are two very old yew trees. They are under nature protection. The older one is estimated to be 450 years old. There is a third yew in the village. A display board marks their location. The two huge linden trees opposite the yew trees are also worth seeing.

There are probably three yew trees in total, and yes, the oldest is around 450 years old and around 9m high, the other two between 200 and 300 years old. All three natural monuments. - After the yew trees have been extinguished for centuries (because their fruits are poisonous - stupid for the pigs and the other cattle that were previously driven into the forest), 1000 new ones have been sown in the forest here. - By the way, there is also a thousand-year-old yew tree on the Schlottwitz slope, which is much larger.
