Bartošovický platan

Bartošovický platan, Solitary remarkable tree in Bartošovice, Czech Republic.

The Bartošovický platan is a London plane (Platanus hispanica) north of Bartošovice Castle, Czech Republic. In 2016 it measured 37 m tall with a trunk circumference of 842 cm and a crown 42 m wide, the stoutest plane tree in the country. A horizontal branch at about 2 m, pointing toward the castle, has been propped since before 1976.

The plane tree was planted around 1834, reportedly from a specimen brought from England, in memory of Josefina Malabaila de Canale, who died in 1833. It was declared a protected tree in 1980 as part of the castle grounds.

The tree is called Josefínin platan after Josefina Malabaila de Canale (1770–1833), owner of the Bartošovice chateau, where she was born. Her companion Josef Georg Meinert had it brought from England and planted by the chateau in her memory.

The plane tree stands north of Bartošovice Castle, within the protected castle grounds, so it is reached on foot from the village centre. A thick horizontal branch at about 2 m height, propped up before 1976 and fitted with a small roof over its cavity, is visible from the path.

The plane tree was reportedly planted in 1834 by Josef Georg Meinert in memory of Josefina Malabaila de Canale, who was born at the Bartošovice château in 1770 and died in 1833. Meinert also had a tomb built for her beside the church of St Andrew, Peter and Paul.
