Officials in a Polish town wanted to cut down a tree to make way for a traffic circle. It was discovered that the oak was planted in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War Two to mark Adolf Hitler's birthday.
One elderly resident told Reuters "It's not the tree's fault that it was planted to honor the biggest criminal and enemy of Poland."
