City of Tricase - Vallonea Oak
Channel: Città aperte in rete
Date: 03/04/2018

On the road that connects the town to Tricase Porto, stands, with its seven hundred years of age, one of the oldest specimens in the world of Vallonea Oak.
In the past, acorns produced by the oak were used by the tanners during the phases of leather processing, in order to obtain a softer product thanks to the presence of tannin.
The inhabitants also call it "The Oak of One Hundred Knights".
