Priorlinde, Natural monument in Priorei, Germany
Priorlinde is a massive lime tree with wide horizontal branches that spread at about 6 feet (2 meters) high before turning upward in a candelabra-like form. Its distinctive growth pattern creates a striking silhouette that sets it apart from typical trees.
This tree took root over 1000 years ago and received protection as a natural monument in 1947. It stands as a witness to centuries of settlement and community life in the region.
This tree has long served as a gathering place where people came together for important meetings and festivities. Visitors today can experience the spot where communities assembled and made decisions.
This tree grows near Tiefentalbach stream, which keeps the soil moist and supports its health. Access is convenient via federal road 54 or bus line 510 in the region.
A stone carved with runes sits in front of the tree, hinting at ancient origins of the place. The nearby Kluse settlement is said to have been built on sacred ground.
