These pine trees show large wounds caused by resin extraction. Since this practice was common in East Germany, the trees are, in a sense, relics that point to the division of Germany until 1989!

The tree is actually already dead, but in 2025 it still had a fairly dense crown of leaves. The one photo proves this. Because the thick main trunk has deep gouges (30 cm) and is badly scarred all around, the dying process will certainly continue. If, in 2026, one still sees green leaves on one of the branches in the crown, this can be described as a natural wonder. But even this morbid process has its own charm, if not necessarily beauty. It's part of nature, after all. And besides, a "dead" tree still provides habitat for many small creatures. - I wish you fascinating observations!
