The yew tree in the pastor's garden next to the Flintbek church is commonly referred to as the 1000-year-old yew tree. Measurements have shown that the tree is about 880 years old. It was already mentioned in the documents relating to the construction of the church in 1223. The yew tree has a trunk circumference of 3.80 m (at a height of 1 m) and a height of about 12 m.

Historically, guild trees served as meeting places for craftsmen, where they gathered to exchange news, take on apprentices or make joint decisions. The guild tree in Flintbek continues this tradition and is a place of exchange and community for local craftsmen. The Flintbek local craft school attaches great importance to the care and preservation of this symbol, as it embodies the values of craftsmanship - such as permanence, growth and roots. The guild tree thus stands not only for the past, but also for the vibrant present and future of craftsmanship in the region.

The guild tree at the Flintbek local craft school is a symbol of the region's crafts and traditions. The tree stands on the school's grounds and represents the close connection between the various craft guilds and their shared history.

This tree is not only a natural monument, but also a symbol for the long-term protection and appreciation of old trees in Germany. Why is the Flintbek yew special? • Age & future: Yew trees can live for over 1000 years. The designation is intended to ensure that this tree can age gracefully. • National importance: It is one of the 100 most important trees in Germany. • Nature conservation: The German Dendrological Society and the Eva Mayr-Stihl Foundation support the initiative.

The Flintbek Yew is an impressive European Yew (Taxus baccata) and was awarded as the third National Heritage Tree on October 27, 2019. This award is given by the National Heritage Trees Board to recognize the special ecological, historical and cultural significance of a tree. The aim is to ensure its protection and preservation for future generations.

The bridge in Flintbek leads over the Eider in steps. The Eider valley between Schulensee and Bordesholm is an important natural heritage site that has been renaturalized through targeted conservation measures such as extensive grazing and the cessation of water maintenance. As a result, wet meadows, fens and natural river courses have spread again, which benefits rare species such as the marsh harrier, the moor frog and various bats. A network of hiking trails allows visitors to experience the impressive landscape and its biodiversity up close.
