#1110 700 Year Old Tree at Lupča Castle

700 Year Old Tree at Lupča Castle, Slovenská Ľupča, Slovakia

About this stone

One of the most impressive sights at Lupča Castle is a huge old tree with a trunk measuring around 770 centimetres in circumference. This magnificent tree is believed to be around 700 years old, meaning it has stood here for centuries, watching the castle and the surrounding village change around it. Its enormous trunk even has a little hollow space at the bottom, which turns out to be the perfect hiding spot for a tiny penguin stone. We tuck it safely inside, giving this ancient tree a brand-new little secret to keep.
