Maulbeerbaum von Schermen, Natural monument in Schermen, Möser, Germany.

The white mulberry tree stands near the village church of Schermen with a trunk circumference measuring approximately 4.90 meters.

The tree was planted around 1750 as part of King Frederick II of Prussia's initiative to establish silk farming through mulberry plantations.

The tree earned the nickname 'Sugar Cone Tree' as school children's first-day-of-school candy cones were traditionally hung from its branches.

The area surrounding the tree has been transformed into a village square, making it a central gathering point for community events.

The mulberry tree features prominently on Schermen's official coat of arms, representing its significance to the local identity.
