The term Luther oak refers to oaks that were planted in memory of Martin Luther or are said to be directly related to the reformer's work. These are often pedunculate oaks. The most famous is the Luther oak in Lutherstadt Wittenberg, where Luther burned his copy of the papal bull Exsurge Domine in 1520.

In 1883, on the occasion of Martin Luther's 400th birthday, Luther oaks were planted in many, mostly Protestant-Lutheran towns. These trees now make up the largest group of Luther oaks; they often stand in squares in front of churches or other centrally located locations. Other Luther oaks were planted sporadically in 1917 on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the Reformation.
