It was once a proud tree, the Hohle Eiche near Allrode in the direction of Thale and the Hexentanzplatz. Estimated to be around 900 years old, the oak had a circumference of 6.40 m. However, as the name suggests, the tree was hollow. So the ravages of time had an easy time of it at some point. In the 2010s, the oak tree finally had to be cut down. Although the designated natural monument at 459 m supposedly still formed green leaves.
