Today, many people use apps like Tinder or Loovoo to find a partner. But there's another way: In Schleswig-Holstein, lovers send letters to a tree and hope for true love.
In the February article of Presse und Sprache, you can learn the story of this tree, which is called the "Bräutigamseiche" (groom's oak). Find out who the tree has already brought together and the address, you can send your letters to.
The easy reading text with word explanations (from A2 CEFR) as well as the audio with exercises tell you about the "Bräutigamseiche". Perhaps a suitable topic for your German lessons?
We wish you and your participants a lot of fun reading and practicing German!
