    Tips

    The King Ludwig Oak is a pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) that is designated as a natural monument.
    The age of the oak is given as 400-600 years, the trunk circumference is approx. 7 m.

    I've known the oak for a couple of years and every time I see it it looks worse.
    Due to the high proportion of dead wood in the crown, the area around the oak is cordoned off.

      I would say the oak has had better days; it won't survive 2022.

        walked by again today, I don't think it's kicking anymore. Too bad
