Tree

• Photographer
  Agnes Kubicka, Poland

Photo was taken in Poland within the National Park. Tree in the
photo is the oak, which is a monument of nature. In the park are
the largest oaks in this part of Europe.Today’s circumferences of
some of those monument oaks are up to 10 m. The most
famous among them are those named Lech, Czech and Rus
(circumferences: 930 cm, 810 cm and 670 cm, respectively), all
to be met at the palace park. Legend has it that they stand there
to commemorate the parting of the three brothers who once set
out from there to three cardinal directions to eventually found
what was to become Poland, Bohemia and Russia.
