Name:

Anne Frank Tree

Description:

Beside a path on the edge of the park is a chestnut tree, with a pair of boulders beside it on the ground. The boulders are smoothed on their sides facing the path, and are inscribed; one with text explains the tree, the other with an inspirational quote from Anne Frank’s Diary.

Inscriptions

On the Left Boulder:

While in hiding during the

Holocaust, Anne Frank was

inspired by the tree outside her

window, from which this chestnut

 tree was grown. Dedicated to the

City of Seattle by the Holocaust

Center for Humanity, 2016.

 

On the Right Boulder:

How wonderful it is that

nobody need wait a single

moment before starting

to improve the world

 Anne Frank (1929-1945)

Commissioned by

The Holocaust Center for Humanity
