Despite heavy damage, this American Elm survived the bombing of the Murrah Building.
The Survivor Tree is a 90-year-old American Elm which bears witness to the violence of April 19 and now stands as a profound symbol of human resilience. The circular promontory surrounding the tree offers a place for gathering and viewing the Memorial and downtown Oklahoma City. The message to visitors reads: "The spirit of this city and this nation will not be defeated; our deeply rooted faith sustains us."
