The Pi d'en Xandri, a pine (Pinus pinea) from the Torre Negra Park, is one of the oldest pines in Catalonia and an ecological, cultural and historical symbol of Sant Cugat. It is estimated to be around 235 years old. It has an approximate height of 23 meters and a trunk of 3.20 meters in diameter. Its glass is 21 meters wide in the shape of an umbrella. The Pi d'en Xandri lost some of its branches due to the heavy snowfall that fell on Christmas Day 1962 and in 1997 some vandals tried to cut it down and burn it. It has been secured with wooden posts to give it stability.

The Xandri pine is a monumental pinyoner pine (Pinus pinea in Latin) located in the territory of the rural park of Torre Negra in Sant Cugat del Vallès, about 250 years old (according to a dendrological analysis it germinated in 1774).

The tree has a height of 23 meters, a trunk circumference of 3.20 meters and a trunk thickness of 3.60 meters. Its head has a width of 21 by 15 meters. It is called Xandri because it is located on land that was once owned by a farmer named Xandri
