Kladruby Oak, also known as the Tree of Life (Strom života) near the Kladruby Monastery (Klášter Kladruby) in Kladruby near Tachov in West Bohemia, Czech Republic. This European oak (Quercus robur) is known as one of the oldest tree in the region, it probably remembers the siege of the monastery by the Hussites in 1421. The Assumption Church (Kostel Nanebevzetí Panny Marie) of the Kladruby Monastery is seen in the background.
