Bavariabuche, Historic beech tree in Altmannstein, Germany
The Bavariabuche stood as a solitary European beech tree on a gentle hill near Altmannstein, displaying a wide-spreading crown and thick branches.
The tree remained a central geographical marker for the local community until 2013 when a severe summer storm caused its complete destruction.
Local residents regularly gathered at the Bavariabuche for seasonal celebrations and community events, making it a central meeting point for generations.
The site continues to host outdoor cinema events and winter festivities throughout the year, including special programs for children and families.
Before its destruction, the Bavariabuche ranked among Germany's most photographed trees, with its silhouette featured in numerous regional publications.
