Baranoff Park, Safety Harbor

Great deep history here in downtown safety harbor. This tree is estimated to be 500 years old. And many of these branches are so heavy and so large that they have to have braces placed under them so they don't collapse under their own immense weight. This tree is fenced off so nobody can do harm to it. There is also another tree nearly the same estimated age located only a few yards away from this one. Plus there are multiple wonderful heritage rich restaurants, and homes located all around this park. Divine heritage. With the public library right around the corner. This is a wonderful place to have lunch break at. Or just a walk down and see the wonderful sights of downtown safety harbor. I recommend visiting at least once to gaze at the magnificent size of the tree. Pictures dont do it justice.

The city has preserved this iconic old oak tree. I was told that back in the day it was used as a hanging tree. How disturbing is that?
