Cherry plantation of the city of Treffurt
The fact that fruit growing became at home in Treffurt is probably due to the good geological and climatic conditions
conditions justified. Around 25,000 fruit trees once stood in the district of Werrastadt.
As early as 1788, it was ordered “that every new resident and every young husband should have 6
grafted fruit trees and every inhabitant had to plant 2 pieces a year. After the "clippers"
In addition to the still thin-fleshed wild cherry mentioned, the Spanish cartilaginous cherry found its way around 1830.
The Treffurt nickname, "sperrachen" (cherries that burst after a warm rain) probably goes back to the local fruit growers.
Since 2014, every bridal couple has received a cherry tree as a gift from the city, which is to be preserved
of the plantation is planted here. Great idea. 👍(...from information board)

The cherry tree plantation is a former area of land that every resident of Treffurt was required to cultivate. Today, things are handled somewhat differently: Since 2014, the city has given each newlywed a cherry tree, and this plantation is planted.
