Cis Henrykowski, Ancient yew tree in Henryków Lubański, Poland
The yew tree reaches 15 meters in height and stands next to a barn wall at property number 293 in Henryków Lubański village.
Dating back to 724 AD, this 1300-year-old yew suffered damage from Cossack soldiers in 1813 and later from artillery fire during World War II.
The protection of this natural monument started in the 14th century under King Władysław Jagiełło, who established strict penalties for damaging yew trees.
The tree underwent extensive conservation efforts in 2016, including root protection, scaffold construction, and installation of sprinkler systems for summer heat protection.
The circumference of this ancient yew decreased from 5 meters to 1.5 meters following multiple historical events and a devastating hurricane in 1989.
