This group of trees that you can find there consists of oaks and beeches and is also worth some cultural and historical information. During the First World War, Moroccan soldiers carved characters into the bark that were still visible at least in 1991.
The oaks were 175 years old and the beeches were 225 years old at the time of recording.
