Žižkův dub, Ancient oak tree in Třemošnice, Czech Republic.
The oak tree reaches a height of 28 meters and has a trunk circumference of 890 centimeters, making it one of the largest memorial oaks in Chrudim district.
The oak tree dates back to approximately 1250, when construction began on Lichnice Castle, and has witnessed numerous military campaigns throughout Czech history.
Named after Jan Žižka, the military leader of the Hussite movement, the oak stands as a testament to Czech medieval heritage near Lichnice Castle ruins.
Visitors can find the oak tree at coordinates 49.8769 latitude and 15.5892 longitude, within walking distance of marked paths in the Podhradí area.
The tree's hollow trunk required specialized preservation methods, though experts later discovered that bricking inhibited natural ventilation and healing processes.
