    It is to be hoped that this oak tree will remain standing and preserved for a long time to come. One may disagree about the age, it's nice that such veterans still exist at all.

    There are quite a few legends about oaks and devils, here is one of them:

    The devil once asked God when he would get the fields, which used to be much scolded, and received the answer: if all the old leaves on all the trees would fall off before the young ones sprout. Since the oak tree, even though it has young leaves, still has old ones, it is an annoyance and an abomination to the devil.

    The age of the oak is given as 300 - 350 years.
