    She gets a lot of visitors, “Fat Marie”. Goethe is not the only one who has had a dialogue with her. She has a lot to tell, the beautiful old English oak. Take your time and listen to their stories sitting on the bench.

      The pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) is said to have germinated in the year 1107 on the Great Malche, a bay that forms the northern tip of the Tegeler Lake, near the castle Tegel. The tree was given the name of the brothers Alexander and Wilhelm von Humboldt, who spent their youth in the castle Tegel, in reference to the well-dressed cook of the castle. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe also visited the tree during his travels in 1778 and stayed in his shadow.
