The Friederike Oak, at 1200 years old, is the oldest oak tree in the Hasbruch forest and thus the "Queen of Hasbruch."
hasbruch.de: The Friederike Oak is named after Friederike, the second daughter of the later Grand Duke Paul Friedrich August of Oldenburg (1783–1853) and his first wife, Adelheid of Anhalt-Bernburg (1800–1820). Born in 1820, Friederike later renounced court life, married Baron von Washington in 1855, and lived in Styria until her death in 1891.
