  • 193768 Toelichting Op Het Aan Te Wijzen Beschermd Stadsgezicht Haagse
    Toelichting op het aan te wiizen "Beschermd Stadsqezicht Haagse Bos"- uitbreiding Beschermd Stadsgezicht 's-Gravenhage deel Haagse Bos: 6S> 1. Plattegrond van Jacob i'an Deventer uit 2543. Duidelijk is het open Icnrakter van Den Haag waameembaar, dat nooit stadsrechten in de middeleeuwse zin heeft gekend en dientengevolge lange tijd een omgrachting of ommuring heeft moeten ontberen. Pas in 1613 werd een aanvang gemaakt met de aanleg 'jan de huidige singelomgrachting. Inleiding Het aan te wijzen stadsgezicht bestaat uit het omvangrijke en eeuwenoude (groene) structuur- elemennt van het Haagse Bos. Het bos grenst aan de zuid-westzijde aan de open ruimte van Malieveld/Koekamp, het oorspronkelijke overgangsgebied van het Haagse Bos naar het hofkwar- tier en tot op het heden nagenoeg onbebouwd. Het bestaat grotendeels uit gesloten loofbos. In het zuidoostelijke deel liggen vijvers die zijn omgeven door speel- en ligweiden. Het Haagse Bos is (met Malieveld en Koekamp) 110 ha. groot. Het Haagse Bos is o.a. in de Nota De Kern Gezond gekenmerkt als onderdeel van de zeer belangrijke reeks van openbare ruimten in Den Haag die de voorname groene sfeer van de stad bepalen. Het gaat hier om een samenhangende reeks, beginnende midden in de stad en doorlopend tot ver in het buitengebied (Plaats, Lange Vijverberg, Toernooiveld, Korte Voorhout, Malieveld/Koekamp en Haagse Bos). De samenhang van deze ruimten wordt sterk bepaald door de oorspronkelijke strandwal waarop deze groene ruimten zijn gelegen. Voor het Haagse Bos zal moeten worden bepaald hoe met behoud en zo mogelijk versterking van de huidige kwaliteit, voorzieningen kunnen worden getroffen, die de contrasten in het gebied ook beleefbaar maken en die het gebied beter kunnen laten functioneren.

  • Engelandvaarder Engels Broch
    2 Cycling the trail of an Engelandvaarder Bunker near Scheveningen The story of the Soldier of Orange has been told many times: in a book, film and musical. The leading character is Erik Hazelhoff Roelfzema (1917-2007), an Engelandvaarder (England sailor) and a member of the Dutch resistance during World War II. The cities of Leiden and Scheveningen also play an important part in the story, and these happen to be at the edges of the very diverse dune area Duin, Horst & Weide. So just get on your bicycle and follow the trail of the Soldier of Orange along the coastline, dunes, meadows, country estates and old cities.
