In Arboretum Poort Bulten, a shoot of the white horse chestnut tree is planted, which Anne Frank looked out on from the Secret Annex in Amsterdam. Besides serving as a reminder of the persecution of the Jews, the tree also commemorates the acts of resistance by the Gelderman family during World War II.
From the mother tree of the cutting, Anne looked out from the Secret Annex on the Prinsengracht. The chestnut and the sky of clouds were Anne's only connection to nature.
The last time she wrote about it in her famous diary was on May 13, 1944. 'Our chestnut tree is in full bloom from top to bottom. It is full of leaves and much prettier than last year,' were her words.
