after the old oak fell at the beginning of 2022, a new oak was planted in the immediate vicinity of the former location.

The old crown oak was deliberately left as deadwood and provides an important habitat for moss, fungi, beetles and other insects. In autumn 2022, a beautiful seating area was set up here. On May 1st, the crowned oak is a popular meeting place and also a refreshment station for hikers!

The crown oak stands directly on Sälzerweg at the three-town corner Schwarzenberg - Kirchhof - Melsungen. Unfortunately, the old crown oak was rotten and collapsed in January 2022. A new oak tree was planted in summer 2022 and a new seating area consisting of two benches and a table was set up. The old crown oak remains as dead wood in its original location. Every year on May 1st, TSV Schwarzenberg organizes a small festival at the Kroneneiche - as a destination for hikers.
