Kaštanovník v Zábřehu nad Odrou

Kaštanovník v Zábřehu nad Odrou is a protected chestnut tree standing roughly 18 meters tall and designated as a natural monument. Its massive trunk and broad canopy make it a striking feature along Hulvácká street in the residential area.

The tree survived the intense bombing of Zábřeh in March 1945 during World War II, when many residential buildings nearby were destroyed. Its survival through that violent period makes it a living witness to the area's recent past.

The tree holds meaning for local residents and visiting school groups who come to learn about the area's natural heritage. It serves as a landmark that people recognize and remember when moving through the neighborhood.

The tree is easily accessible from the street and sits within a residential neighborhood with standard urban infrastructure. You can walk up to it and spend time viewing it from different angles without needing special arrangements.

The chestnut was protected because the species became rare in the region and the tree itself had already lived for many decades. Its long existence connects visitors to earlier periods of the area's landscape and ecology.
