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

On the Right Boulder:
How wonderful it is that
nobody need wait a single
moment before starting
to improve the world
