Wittekind-Linde, Natural monument in Elbrinxen, Germany.
The Wittekind-Linde, a Large-leaved Lime tree, stands over 30 meters tall with an oval crown spanning approximately 25 meters in diameter.
During the mid-19th century, the tree's crown sustained severe storm damage, leading to the installation of iron bands in 1860 to support remaining branches.
The tree serves as a central natural landmark in the churchyard of Elbrinxen, where it has witnessed countless community gatherings and events.
Visitors can find this remarkable lime tree at the lower section of the cemetery near the Protestant church in Elbrinxen, North Rhine-Westphalia.
The trunk of this massive lime tree measures 10.30 meters in circumference at chest height, placing it among Germany's most substantial trees.
