Alte Linde Eschelbronn

The Winterlinde tree stands next to the Schwarzbach river along the Bettweg path in northern Baden-Württemberg, featuring substantial branches and dense foliage.

Prior to 1850, the great-grandfather of farmer Emil Hauck planted this Linde tree at a location that marked important intersections to neighboring municipalities.

The tree location includes a stone bench and serves as a meeting point for various community members, from youth groups to retired residents.

Visitors can locate the tree using its protection area number 82260200001 and find an old stone signpost indicating distances to Mönchzell and Meckesheim.

The tree's health declined after the construction of a rainwater retention basin in the 1980s, which affected its root system and surrounding soil conditions.
