Warsaw’s Tree of the Year 2024 – Warsaw Insider

This award, organized by the Warsaw Greenery Board, aims to celebrate and preserve Warsaw’s green heritage by spotlighting exceptional trees. The Ursus olive won over half the votes, triumphing over 12 other contenders like Białołęka’s English oak and Wola’s common beech. On October 13, a commemorative plaque will be unveiled during a guided dendrological walk led by expert Jacek Borowski.

This cherished olive isn’t just a tree—it’s a reminder of the importance of green spaces in urban life, creating bonds across generations and supporting the ecosystem.
