Pear tree at the Walserfeld

The pear tree stands in the middle of agricultural fields, marking its presence against the Salzburg countryside with its broad canopy and sturdy trunk.

This 19th-century tree marks the location of the Battle of Walserfeld in 1800, where French and Austrian imperial forces clashed on these grounds.

The tree holds such importance to the local identity that it features prominently on the official coat of arms of Wals-Siezenheim, granted in 1948.

Visitors can locate the tree using its geographical coordinates at 47°47'2"N latitude and 12°58'23"E longitude, within the Salzburg-Umgebung district boundaries.

The municipality integrated conservation efforts for this natural monument into regional planning, preserving its status as a living historical marker.
