=========================================================

Mohutná lípa se stala vítezem regionální souteže „Strom Kromerížska 2003“. Roste u silnice mezi Tešnovicemi a Velkými Tešany, v míste bývalé križovatky formanských cest. Pod lípou je kríž datovaný od roku 1851, kterým byl nahrazen puvodní kríž drevený. Lípa je výraznou krajinnou dominantou a za príznivého pocasí je viditelná ze Zlína, a snad i ze Svatého Hostýna.
