Lukasova lípa, Solitary linden tree in Telecí, Czech Republic.

Lukasova lípa is a large-leaved linden (Tilia platyphyllos) standing by house no. 102 in Telecí, about 100 m from the main road. Its hollow trunk had a circumference of 1170 cm in 2001, and the crown reaches 23 m in height.

The tree was declared a protected monument of the Czech Republic on 21 November 1995. In 2003 it entered the coat of arms of Telecí, and in 2004 it appeared on a 6.50 CZK postage stamp engraved by Martin Srb. It was named Tree of the Year 2021 in the Czech Republic.

The nickname Zpívající lípa (Singing Linden) comes from the legend of old man Jiroušek, who copied the New Testament and psalms inside the hollow trunk during the Counter-Reformation and sang as he worked; the song mixed with the rustling leaves. Writers including Alois Jirásek and Teréza Nováková retold the tale. The name Lukasova refers to the Lukas family, who owned the farm until 1915, when Josef Lukas fell on the Italian front.

The tree stands by house no. 102, about 100 m from the main road through Telecí, so it can be reached on foot from the roadside without a long approach. The trunk is hollow, with an opening at ground level that was partly overgrown and long covered by a grate; keep to the roadside and do not enter the cavity.

The hollow trunk once had an opening at the roof level of the neighbouring house, so the cavity was entered from above; the ground-level opening was long covered by a grate. In 1986–87 arborists removed 15 m³ of dead wood filling the trunk to a height of 1.5 m, along with old fired vessels, some medieval, later given to the museum in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem.
