The natural monument Kasberger Linde (also known as Kunigundenlinde or Franzosenlinde) is a summer linden (Tilia platyphyllos) on the edge of the Graefenberg district of Kasberg in the district of Forchheim. Court days were probably held near the tree in the Middle Ages. According to different estimates, the linden tree is 600 to 1000 years old and has been listed as a natural monument by the lower nature conservation authority of the Forchheim district since at least 1976.
