Wurzelfichte, Natural monument in Buckow, Germany.

The Wurzelfichte stands 35 meters tall with an exposed root system along the bank of the Sophienfließ stream in Märkische Schweiz Nature Park.

The 180-year-old spruce tree faced substantial damage during Storm Kyrill in January 2007, which uprooted the main trunk and altered its structure.

The tree has become an essential element of local identity, with its image featured in regional publications and nature documentation about Brandenburg's natural heritage.

Visitors can reach the tree through marked hiking trails in the Märkische Schweiz Nature Park, located at coordinates 52.5861°N and 14.0653°E.

The root cavity remains visible due to natural erosion from the stream, creating an unusual formation that attracts nature enthusiasts and photographers.
