Koprivić Tree - One of the oldest trees on Krk
The Koprivić (Mediterranean hackberry – Celtis australis) is one of the oldest and most impressive trees on the island of Krk. According to local legend, it was planted by the Croatian king Krešimir during his visit to the island between 1058 and 1074.
Despite centuries of wind, weather and time, the tree still stands strong today. Its massive trunk and wide branches make it a real natural landmark and an eye-catching stop along the route through the island’s interior.
This tree is not just a piece of nature – it’s living history. A quiet place that connects you with the past of Krk in a very simple but powerful way.
