The "King's limetree" at Linderhof Palace is a remarkable tree in the so called "Water parterre" in front of the palace. About 450 years old and 30 m heigh, it existed long before the palace was built by Ludwig II of Bavaria. In the days of king Ludwig II there was a "Baumhaus" (tree house) in the lime tree, not a real house but a platform (see [1]) where the king had breakfast, when the weather was fine. The picture shows well both the whole tree and its size and its location in the water parterre in front of Schloss Linderhof. -- Llez (talk) |
