Two mighty pedunculate oaks dominate Schlörplatz. In 1824, a jubilee oak was planted here to mark the 25th anniversary of the reign of Maximilian I Joseph, the Bavarian ruler of the House of Wittelsbach (initially as Elector from 1799, and as King from 1806). Beneath it stands the monument to Gustav von Schlör. This jubilee oak at the monument and the Peace Oak in the center of the square (donated in 1871 by Josef Fiedler of Almesbach) are pedunculate oaks, which quickly form a wide-spreading crown on a short trunk.

On the occasion of the reign anniversary of King Max I Joseph of the House of Wittelsbach in 1824, an anniversary oak was planted here in front of the Lower Gate.
The monument to Gustav von Schlör, the last Bavarian Minister of Trade in the 19th century, has stood beneath it since 1885. Gustav von Schlör (1820 -1883), during whose term of office general freedom of trade was introduced in Bavaria in 1868, was particularly important for the economic development of Weiden, as through his advocacy and support Weiden was connected to the railway network in 1863. The anniversary oak at the monument and the peace oak in the middle of the square (donated in 1871 by Josef Fiedler from Almesbach) are English oaks.
