Gubec lime, Protected lime tree in Gornja Stubica, Croatia
The large-leaved lime tree stands 9 meters tall with a trunk diameter of 4.70 meters near the Church of St. George in Gornja Stubica.
The 400-year-old tree witnessed the Croatian Peasants' Revolt of 1573, led by Matija Gubec against feudal oppression in the region.
Since 1957, this natural monument has symbolized the resistance and determination of Croatian peasants who fought for their rights against noble landowners.
Visitors can combine their trip to the lime tree with a visit to the Museum of Peasant Revolts, housed in the nearby baroque Oršić Castle.
The Living Archive, established in 2011, maintains the genetic material of this centuries-old tree to ensure its preservation for future generations.
