Sequoia trees in the urban forest
These include the sequoia trees (Sequoiadendron giganteum) in the west, planted in 1884 by the then chief forester Eduard Brehme, which are probably the highest mountain sequoia trees in Thuringia, the strongest of which had a circumference of 412 cm in 2008 and 440 cm in 2018. Their growth in thickness can therefore be classified as significant and is not yet complete. The height of the trees was officially measured in 2012. With a height of 43 m, the trees are among the tallest in the Mühlhausen city forest
