    As a plaque attached next to the tree disc reveals, it is a gift on the occasion of the 2000th anniversary of the city of Bonn.

    Hiking

    "The Sequoia piece, also called Redwood or Sequoia, comes from the Six Rivers National Forest in Northern California and is around 750 years old. The redwood is the largest tree in the world, it grows on the American west coast and can reach a height of 110 meters. About Oakland and Rotterdam, the disc was transported to Bonn. Twenty small metal panels on the corresponding annual rings recall important events in the history of Bonn. Starting in 1244, when Bonn's city rights were confirmed. "(Source: bonn.de)

    Very interesting to see such a cross-section. The annual rings are very easy to see
