The Tree that owns itself and the cobblestone road leading to it are 2 'must - sees' in Athens. The tree is a white oak that has, according to legend, legal ownership of itself and of all land within eight feet of its base. The land around the tree was deeded to the tree when the owner of the property died, sometime between 1820-1832.
