And back again all the way to the north. Near Rinkenbergerhof at the wayside stands a pear tree which is about 145 years old. The trunk is held together with screws, and it hasn't produced any pears for a long time, but it sprouts leaves every year. This tree belongs to the official natural heritage in Speyer.
