    The huge fir tree is about 400 years old. It therefore sprouted during the time of the Thirty Years' War. It is called the Förster-Lang fir tree because a forester named Heinrich Lang from Nagel prevented the fir tree from being felled.

        It is one of the largest trees I have ever seen in Germany. A real highlight!
