Hiking Highlight
The Babisnauer landowner Johann Gottlieb Becke planted the poplar in 1808 as a border tree on the border of his property. It has been a natural monument since 1936. The poplar lost most of its round crown in strong storms in 1967 and 1996. It is 17.3 meters high, the trunk has a circumference of 5.1 meters.
According to legend, the poplar with its flower, which does not appear every year, indicates the approaching end of a war.

One of the most spectacular views over Dresden.
When the weather is nice you can look from Radebeul over the entire DD over to Heidenau / Pirna to the Saxon Switzerland ...

Very old poplar, which is a popular destination. In front of the poplar stands a small lookout tower on which you have a wonderful view of Dresden.
