    This pedunculate oak has been registered as a "monument tree" since 2014. Its girth of almost 5 meters, its span of more than 30 meters, and its height of approximately 25 meters make it a remarkable tree. Strollers pause to admire its splendor. Its tortured form reflects its centuries-old history. This ancient tree, truly majestic, has probably witnessed significant historical events, such as the Revolution, since the reign of Louis XIV. It must have been a fine sight when, in 1814, the "Muehlgraben" cross was erected almost under its shadow. It is one of those wounded oaks, one that doesn't break even when struck by lightning. From its venerable summit, it can contemplate almost three centuries. Serene, majestic, and dignified, it embodies, with another oak at its side, the symbols of strength, resilience, and invincibility.
