The Kaditz Lime Tree, a towering presence on the Emmaus Churchyard in Dresden-Kaditz, stands 20 meters tall and is estimated to be 500 to 1000 years old. Following a village fire in 1818, it developed a unique growth pattern, making it a significant dendrological specimen. With a trunk circumference of about 9 meters, it is listed among Germany's nationally significant trees.
