Yew tree stolen from Gotha's Orangery - Matthias Hey reacts immediately!
Last weekend, brazen vandalism caused a stir in Gotha: Unknown people stole a freshly planted yew tree from the orangery. This yew tree was planted at the historic fountain with a lot of passion and donations collected by the Orangerie-Freunde e.V. The damage caused by the theft amounts to around 500 euros - including costs for the property, transport and planting work. This is a clear setback for the committed members of the association, who put a lot of effort into maintaining their green oasis.
The situation was quickly brought up by Gotha's state parliament member Matthias Hey. He announced that he would provide 250 euros to purchase a new yew tree. “It is important that we support the club in this difficult situation and not leave it alone,” emphasized Hey. The late fall season is an ideal time for planting yew trees, and so action must be taken quickly to get the new yew tree into the ground. Hey, I'm already in contact with the park administration and the Orangery Friends to quickly find a solution.
Fast help and commitment
The incident is not only sad, but also raises questions about the protection of community projects. The joy of nature and the shared home should not be disturbed by such criminal acts. The yew tree played a central role in the concept of the green spaces and served not only aesthetic value, but also biodiversity in Gotha.
As is so often the case, this shows how important the commitment of civil society and the support of local politicians is in maintaining such initiatives. The topic of donation behavior remains important in Germany, as current statistics show. According to that DZI The total donation volume in 2024 was 12.5 billion euros, which represents a decrease compared to 2023. Especially in uncertain times, when many charitable organizations rely on the generosity of the public, every helping hand is needed and every contribution counts.
It remains to be hoped that the events surrounding the yew tree will not only mobilize new donations, but also raise awareness of the importance of such projects. Because nothing is nicer than relaxing in a well-kept park that represents the heart of Gotha and its citizens.
