The wooden statue of Wilhelm Borwin III (prince from the 13th century) was made from the thickest oak in the Rostocker Heide, which fell in 2010 during a hurricane

Beautiful resting place - until a few decades ago, a tree over 500 years old stood here, named in honor of Prince Wilhelm Borwin III, who sold the forest area of Rostocker Heide to the people of Rostock in the 13th century (still considered one of the best deals in the city's history). You can still see the remains of the toppled giant tree. The current specimen of the Borwin Oak was planted in 1992.

Prince Bodwin sold the Rostock Heath to the city of Rostock in the 13th century. The statue was crafted from the largest oak tree in the Rostock Heath, which, at 35 meters tall and with a trunk diameter of approximately two meters, fell victim to Hurricane Jeanett in 2002.
