Tree Tower in Decatur County Courthouse


Decatur County Court House near Greensburg, Indiana.

Locals say that this is not the original tree, it is the third offspring of the original tree (which was cut down). When officials were talking about removing the tree as part of the court house restoration, the kids in town petitioned against it and got enough signatures to save the tree.

When asked how the tree got there to begin with, one local responded, "If you’re a far right Christian you believe that God put it there."
