Cedr Na Balkáně, Atlas cedar in Vysočany, Prague, Czech Republic
The cedar tree rises 14 meters high with a trunk circumference of 265 centimeters, displaying its characteristic silvery-green needles in the tennis club area.
The cedar was brought as a seedling from the Netherlands through activities of the Dendrological Society established in Vienna in 1908.
The tree grows in the Balkán neighborhood, which received its name in 1925 during the construction of family houses by the Domov cooperative.
Visitors can reach the cedar by walking 550 meters from the Chmelnice public transport stop, within the tennis courts at Na Balkáně street.
This Atlas cedar stands as the only protected cedar tree in Prague and remains the single protected tree in Prague 3 district as of 2019.
