    The Hersberg oak, or Altrier oak, is a pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) listed among the remarkable trees of Luxembourg. The tree, whose trunk houses a statue of the Blessed Virgin, is a place of Marian, local and cross-border pilgrimage.

    The oak tree is located in a depression by the side of the road that connects the two Luxembourg localities of Altrier and Hersberg (commune of Bech), about 24 km northeast of the city of Luxembourg. Its age is estimated at around 500 years.
