Highlight • Natural Monument
By the way, the Plataan has real value as heritage. Here's what you can read about it on Inventory of Real Estate Heritage 2023: Upright plane tree as a corner tree Hof Ter Laken, id.erfgoed.net/erfgoedobjecten/130390
"Northwest of the Hof Ter Laken castle, a plane tree (Platanus x hispanica) has been planted along the banks of the Grote Nete as a corner tree to mark the ownership situation of the castle domain. The plane tree has already developed into an imposing solitary tree and has been seen for its location along the Grote Nete is very iconic: the total height is approximately 36 meters; the crown diameter approaches 30 meters; the trunk circumference is 384 cm and the tree has a high leaning trunk of 6 meters (measured in 2006)."
