Monk beech (2019)

The Mönchsbuche is a natural monument near the Hasserode district of Wernigerode in the Harz Mountains . It is located on an old connection between the Himmelpforten monastery and the Ilsenburg monastery .

In March 2011, the crown of the beech tree, which was well over 100 years old, was removed in order to save the rest of the tree from being felled due to death.

The monk beech is included as No. 26 in the system of stamping points of the Harz hiking pin; At this point there is a refuge ( 528  m above sea  level ). A little below the beech on the way to the Steinerne Renne is the Wernigeröder Bürgerbrunnen .
