Description

Trees produce vital oxygen, improve the climate, filter dust and pollutants and provide humidity and air movement. They provide a habitat for a wide variety of animals, enliven and structure the cityscape or townscape and dampen noise. To ensure that trees are preserved, they require special protection - especially in heavily populated areas.

If you wish to fell a tree, a permit may be required. You may have to pay compensation for the felled tree. A felling permit is particularly necessary if trees are subject to special protection.

If a tree is protected as a "protected landscape feature" in a built-up area or within an avenue, you must apply for a special permit to fell it.

Please contact the lower nature conservation authority.

If there is a tree protection statute in your municipality or town, please also contact your municipality.
