    Looks very majestic with many ornate, bony branches and not high but extremely wide

      The devil's beech here at Steinhof is probably the oldest known Süntel beech in the Deister-Süntel valley.
      In expert circles it is considered the most beautiful tree of its kind. The short, twisted trunk has a typical bell-shaped crown. Its branches show serpentine and kinked growth.
      Transplanted here from Hohenstein in Süntel in 1860, it served for a long time as a mother tree for offspring in the region. Since the devil's beech must have already been a certain size when it was transplanted, it could be around 180 years old today.

        There is a Süntel beech on the Steinhof meadow in front of the town hall.
        From the roots to the smallest branches, everything is twisted. The Süntel beech is a rare mutation of the common beech.
