<\/p>\nThe age of the Mediterranean hackberry, which is located in the centre of Novi Sad in Modena Street, is estimated to be over 120 years. This is the only remaining tree from the former tree line that stretched along Ilije Ognajnovi\u0107a Street and is considered the most beautiful tree in Novi Sad and in general; it\u2019s a special, exceptional specimen of its kind. Its crown is formed by nine basic branches, which rise from the trunk in a regular arrangement, forming with the side branches and twigs a perfectly spherical shape of the crown with a slightly raised top. Such an arrangement also forms a regular shape inside the crown, so that even without leaves, during the winter, it has an extraordinary aesthetic appearance. It is 15 meters tall, while the diametre of its rich crown is 18,5 metres. This symbol of Novi Sad is a natural monument of the first category of protection since 1978.
