Jírovec stěhovavý, Solitary memorial tree in Perštýn, Liberec, Czech Republic

The Liberec Horse Chestnut, also called Jírovec stěhovavý, is a 16.5-metre-tall tree with a trunk circumference of 360 cm, standing in the Perštýn district near the Liberec Regional Office. It was moved about 350 metres in 2007 from the courtyard of the former KORD barracks, demolished in 1995.

The tree was protected in 1995 after the surrounding military barracks were demolished. In 2007, it was moved about 350 meters from its original location to make way for a shopping center.

Locals call it Jírovec stěhovavý, the "migratory horse chestnut", after its 2007 move. The name stuck because the tree was lifted whole, with its 8 × 8 × 2 m root ball, and carried by crane about 350 metres to its new spot near the Jizerské hory protected-area office.

The tree is located in the Perštýn district and is easy to reach on foot, near administrative buildings and in an accessible urban area. You can find it by exploring the streets around the Regional Office and looking for the large chestnut tree.

The relocation in 2007 required one of the largest cranes in the Czech Republic to move the entire tree with its soil and root system intact. This complex operation shows how much effort went into preserving this particular tree.
