Survivor Tree

The Survivor Tree is a historic American elm located at the Oklahoma City National Memorial. It survived the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that destroyed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, serving as a symbol of resilience and hope for the community. Over the years, the tree was carefully cared for and nurtured, and it now stands as a living reminder of strength, recovery, and remembrance. Its endurance reflects the community’s ability to heal and rebuild after tragedy.
