Horner Linde, Ancient linden tree in Horn-Lehe, Germany
The Horner Linde stands at the cemetery near the Church of the Holy Cross, measuring over four meters in diameter with three merged trunks.
The linden tree, first documented in 1380, served as a judicial gathering place where medieval assemblies called Thing were conducted in early Bremen.
A commemorative plaque near the tree tells the story of Dutch farmers who settled Horn, Lehe, and Vahr regions in the 12th century.
The tree location offers multiple benches for visitors, with parking spaces available in the surrounding area and public transportation access points.
At approximately 900 years old, this linden tree holds the title of Bremen's oldest tree and ranks among Northern Germany's most ancient living specimens.
