Hunrodeiche

The Hunrodeiche or, more rarely, the Hunrodseiche, in the Harz Mountains of central Germany is an oak tree over 1,000 years old[1] near Hainfeld in the county of Mansfeld-Südharz in the state of Saxony-Anhalt.

The stream of the same name, a tributary of the Thyra, rises a few hundred metres southeast of the oak.

[1] Until about 2000 the tree still had many green shoots; today only the trunk and several, in some cases, thick, but mostly cut branches indicate the long life of the oak with just the occasional leafy shoot.

The checkpoint boxm, which used to be fixed to the tree, is now on a post next to it.
