A special experiential space is created beneath the magnificent copper beech tree.<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The mighty copper beech in the garden of the wannseeFORUM Foundation has shaped the grounds in front of the listed country house for well over a hundred years. With its wide-spreading crown and its serene presence, it creates a special open-air space for contemplation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where participants come together \u2013 for greetings and farewells, to see presentations or perform plays, but also to experience moments of silence and inner reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beech tree is not only a meeting place for people, but also a habitat for numerous animals. Birds find shelter and nesting sites in its branches and trunk. In this way, the old tree uniquely connects nature, community, and history, and has become a vibrant centerpiece of the garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
