Some oaks, and chestnut trees. All of them having sprung naturally as the place has long been kept unkempt. We?re planning to restore the glacis around the castle to its original bare state. See at http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Phileica/Metz/Capture+d_____cran+2021-06-24+__+18_18_06.png.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Phileica/Metz/Capture+d_____cran+2021-06-24+__+18_18_06.png.html> A group of friends intend to fell the trees, and clear the views, abiding so to the current zoning regulations i.e. keeping pastoral and farming land open. And the newly acquired sheep willl be in charge of keeping it clean, hopefully. Nothing to do with massive deforestation for the land is covered by private or state or municipal forest over thousands of acres around, if this may reassure you :-) And this will keep some villagers warm using renewable energy during the winters to come".
