Tips

Jette und Ich

February 25, 2017

This old, gnarled oak tree (Quercus robur), which was overturned by hurricane in autumn 2014, lies on the "Hansaweg" X9 from Herford to Hameln (6 stages together approx. 75 km) at the beginning of the last stage as well as from the page http: //www.hansaweg .de proposed. The oak could have become about 350 years old. Whether the name comes from a rest of Napoleon on his way on the army road to the east, William IV Henry, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and King of Hanover (1765 to 1837) here once signed a contract or the tree "only "so is called because he stood as a former Hudeeiche in the Königsförder forest is not to clarify. These are the naming theories. The tree should remain at this point and pass (source "DEWEZET" from 01.11.2014). The view over Aerzen is beautiful and the path here is a pure hiking trail and not a farm ..

A giant tree, but has not stood for a long time, but lies here and rots.

The fallen oak is slowly being used for fertilizer in the vicinity.
