The tree is still in the place where it belongs. In a beautiful beech forest. With small wooden benches all around. Beautiful, quiet hiking trails.

After the Second World War, peat was mined here on a large scale to a depth of six metres. This is how the peat pits, which are today's water areas, were created.

Known for its homemade cakes and coffee specialties, the café attracts both locals and visitors.
