Humboldteiche, Natural monument and remarkable oak tree in Schlosspark Tegel, Germany.

The Humboldteiche oak tree stands at 29 meters tall with a trunk circumference of 7.80 meters in the grounds of Tegel Castle.

The oak tree received natural monument status in 1939 and underwent extensive restoration work in 1970 due to damage from bracket fungi and broken branches.

Local tradition suggests Alexander Georg von Humboldt planted this tree, though its estimated age of 400-500 years contradicts this theory.

Visitors can locate the tree at coordinates 52.595278, 13.274444 within Schlosspark Tegel, where it stands at 40 meters above sea level.

The Humboldteiche features the largest tree circumference measurement in Berlin, making it a significant botanical specimen in the German capital.
