Duizendjarige den, Ancient Scots pine in Wolfheze, Netherlands.
The tall pine tree reached 22 meters in height with a trunk diameter of 1.37 meters and a perimeter of 4.3 meters at its base.
The tree germinated around 1626 and stood as a natural landmark through centuries until it fell unexpectedly on May 28, 2006 due to a weakened root system.
During the 19th century, landscape painters from the Oosterbeekse school named this specimen the Thousand Year Pine, marking its importance in local heritage.
Located behind Hotel Wolfheze, the remaining trunk site features a protective fence and houses one surviving seedling planted from collected pine cones.
Scientific examination of a fallen branch in 1971 revealed 238 growth rings, confirming the tree's age of approximately 400 years at the time of its fall.
