What kind of tree is it?
The Chestnut is a tree whose history is deeply intertwined with that of human beings. It is thought to have originated in the Caucasus and brought to Europe first by the Greeks and then by the Romans. Widespread and prized for its fruit –chestnuts – and its timber, it fell into decline from the 15th century onwards. But while it is no longer widely cultivated, its cultural importance to many European peoples remains absolutely fundamental.
