Delft is a city of trees. They total more than 100,000, almost as many as there are humans living in the city. And just as a forest is more than a collection of plants, together these trees form a diverse and multi-faceted network: an ‘urban forest mosaic’. The many facets of the urban forest mosaic of Delft are revealed in this atlas, through maps, analyses, images and text. It offers an in-depth analysis of the history of Delft trees. Where, why and by whom were trees planted in the past 500 years? What kind of ‘wooded city’ emerged in different periods, and what does that say about Delft and its inhabitants today? The atlas also examines these centuries of planting and caring for the trees of Delft with the concept of ‘tree language’.The Atlas of Tree City Delft tells a new story about the city and takes fans and advocates of urban forests on a voyage of discovery.
