THE TANZLINDE
The Herrengarten is home to a plant treasure: a lime tree planted in 1313, the oldest recorded tree in the Haut-Rhin region
History buffs, this tree should please you! This lime tree, planted in 1313 by the Habsburgs, is the oldest tree in the Haut-Rhin. It is 17 meters high and 6.30 meters in circumference. This Tanzlinde ("Lime tree of the dance") has its fan club, the guardians of the lime tree from 40 to 90 years old who like to sit under the tree to "watch" it and to remake the world. Ranked second in the national competition of the most beautiful trees in France in 2016 and holder of the label "Remarkable Tree of France", this tree has not finished impressing!
