Large oak Sondersdorf

Called large oak or Napoleon oak, this tree at great age, perhaps 400 or even 500 years old, was already spotted in 1912 by foresters as a remarkable tree.

The lightning twice in 1988, the storm in 1999 and the drought in 2003 led the foresters to maintain this remarkable sessile oak which in the past measured 25 m high whereas today it is only 12 .
