    On the 100th birthday of Kaiser Wilhelm I on March 22, 1897, an imperial oak was also planted in the Fuchsbach valley near Barsinghausen. The local Landwehr warriors' association had a small monument erected at the foot of the oak.

    The Fuchsbach was dammed here in the 17th century to form a "trout pond" to regulate water in the coal mining industry. On the other bank of the stream from the imperial oak is the mouth of the "Lower Sammann Tunnel" built in 1831. After it was taken over by the Prussian state in 1875, it was only used to ventilate the tunnel system opened up by the Barsinghausen monastery tunnel.

    When the memorial stone was built in 1897, a small artificial waterfall was also built on the Fuchsbach near the imperial oak. Kaiser Wilhelm Square was a popular excursion destination for Barsinghausen residents around the turn of the century in 1900. In 2022 there will be a shelter as well as benches and seating areas between the Kaisereiche and the trout pond.
