The natural monument "Wenceslaus Oak" in the main bog forest is estimated to be well over 300 years old. It is about 25 meters high and has a trunk circumference of almost 5 meters, or a diameter of 1.5 meters. The oak is named after the patron saint of the Litzendorfer parish church, St. Wenceslaus.

The Wenzeslaus oak is an old hat oak. Until well into the 20th century, pigs were kept in the forest and ate the acorns as fattening fodder. This approximately 300-year-old magnificent specimen is a relict and monument to this time of domestic animals in the forest.
